Overview

The HR_DM_EXP_BEN_BATCH_PARAS_V view is a dictionary object owned by the APPS schema within the PER — Human Resources product family in Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.1 and 12.2.2. Its documented purpose is to export BEN_BATCH_PARAMETER data, exposing benefit batch parameter records in a flattened, denormalized form suitable for data migration, data pump operations, and integration with external systems. The view is a thin projection over the HR data-migration export/import staging table HR_DM_EXP_IMPS, which allows generic export/import utilities to move records between EBS instances without requiring table-specific extraction logic. Because the view is defined in APPS and references only a synonym, it is intended to remain stable for downstream consumers even if the underlying staging mechanism changes.

Underlying Base Objects

The view is defined over a single documented base object: HR_DM_EXP_IMPS, referenced through a synonym. Rather than selecting from BEN_BATCH_PARAMETER directly, the view reads rows from the export/import staging table filtered by TABLE_NAME = 'BEN_BATCH_PARAMETER'. Each source record is stored in the staging table as a set of generic positional value columns (PVAL001 through PVAL012), which the view aliases to semantically meaningful names. This indirection decouples the physical staging layout from the logical column names consumed by migration tooling.

Key Columns

The most significant column for users arriving from a search on batch_parameter_id is BATCH_PARAMETER_ID, which is cast from PVAL001 and serves as the primary identifier for the benefit batch parameter record. The remaining columns map as follows:

Common Use Cases and Queries

The primary use case is controlled extraction of benefit batch parameters for migration between environments or for archival. A typical query filtering by the parameter identifier searched by the user is:

SELECT batch_parameter_id, batch_exe_cd, thread_cnt_num, max_err_num, chunk_size, business_group_id, last_update_date FROM apps.hr_dm_exp_ben_batch_paras_v WHERE batch_parameter_id = :p_id;

To list all parameters for a business group:

SELECT batch_parameter_id, batch_exe_cd, thread_cnt_num, chunk_size FROM apps.hr_dm_exp_ben_batch_paras_v WHERE business_group_id = :p_bg_id ORDER BY batch_parameter_id;

Because the view exposes the staging rows directly, it is also useful for auditing what has been queued for export. Practitioners should treat the view as read-oriented and avoid updating staging rows through it; parameter maintenance belongs to the benefit batch configuration forms or to the base BEN_BATCH_PARAMETER table. Joins back to BEN_BATCH_PARAMETER on BATCH_PARAMETER_ID can enrich the export data with descriptive attributes not carried in the staging columns.
