Overview

The table IGF_AP_FA_ANT_DATA is a core data object within the now-obsolete Financial Aid (IGF) module of Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) versions 12.1.1 and 12.2.2. As indicated by its description, "Financial Aid Base Record Anticipated Data," this table was designed to store anticipated or projected academic and enrollment information for a student's financial aid application. This data is distinct from the student's actual, historical record and is crucial for the packaging process, where aid awards are calculated based on the student's planned course of study, attendance pattern, and academic period for a future loan disbursement. Its role was to serve as a detailed child record linked to the primary financial aid application header, enabling the system to project costs and eligibility for upcoming terms.

Key Information Stored

The table's structure centers on linking anticipated data to a specific financial aid base record and academic period. The primary key is a composite of BASE_ID, LD_CAL_TYPE, and LD_SEQUENCE_NUMBER, establishing a unique anticipated data record for a given application and loan disbursement period. Key columns and their purposes include:

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table was primarily accessed during the financial aid packaging and disbursement planning workflows. A common use case involved generating a report of all anticipated enrollment details for students packaged for an upcoming academic year to validate data before disbursement. Technical consultants might query this table to troubleshoot packaging issues or to extract data for custom interfaces. A typical SQL pattern would join to the base application and descriptive tables:

SELECT base.person_id, ant.ld_cal_type, ant.ld_sequence_number,
course.course_cd, loc.location_code
FROM igf_ap_fa_ant_data ant,
igf_ap_fa_base_rec_all base,
igs_ps_course course,
igs_ad_location_all loc
WHERE ant.base_id = base.base_id
AND ant.program_cd = course.course_cd
AND ant.program_location_cd = loc.location_cd
AND base.award_year = '2024-2025';
