Overview

The IGF_SL_DISB_LOC_HISTORY table is a core data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, specifically for the Financial Aid module (IGF). As indicated by its description, it functions as the Loan Disbursement History Table. Its primary role is to serve as a historical audit trail for loan disbursement information transmitted to external agencies, such as lenders or guarantors, for processing. This table is critical for tracking the lifecycle and communication status of student loan disbursements. It is important to note the metadata explicitly labels the IGF - Financial Aid module as "Obsolete," indicating this table is part of a legacy component that may be subject to change or removal in future releases.

Key Information Stored

While the provided metadata does not list individual columns, the structure and relationships define the key data points stored. The table's primary purpose is to log the history of disbursement data sent externally. The primary key column, LODISBH_ID, uniquely identifies each historical record. Crucially, the table stores foreign key references to the specific award disbursement it documents, through the columns AWARD_ID and DISBURSEMENT_NUMBER. This linkage ensures each history record is tied to a precise financial aid award disbursement event. The table likely contains columns for timestamps of communication, status flags, agency identifiers, and potentially the specific data payload or confirmation references received from the external entity.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is primarily used for audit, reconciliation, and troubleshooting purposes within the student loan disbursement process. Common operational and reporting scenarios include verifying the date and details of information sent to a guarantor for a specific disbursement, reconciling internal disbursement records with external agency confirmations, and generating compliance reports on loan disbursement transmissions. A typical query would join this history table to the core disbursement table to analyze the timeline.

Sample SQL Pattern:
SELECT hist.*, awd.*
FROM igf_sl_disb_loc_history hist,
igf_aw_awd_disb_all awd
WHERE hist.award_id = awd.award_id
AND hist.disbursement_number = awd.disbursement_number
AND awd.person_id = :student_id
ORDER BY hist.lodisbh_id;

Related Objects

The IGF_SL_DISB_LOC_HISTORY table has a direct and dependent relationship with the core award disbursement table, as documented in the provided foreign key metadata.

  • Primary Key: IGF_SL_DISB_LOC_HISTORY_PK on column LODISBH_ID.
  • Foreign Key (References): The table contains a foreign key constraint linking its AWARD_ID and DISBURSEMENT_NUMBER columns to the IGF_AW_AWD_DISB_ALL table. This establishes that every record in the history table must correspond to a valid, existing disbursement record. This relationship is essential for maintaining referential integrity between the historical log and the active transactional data.
