Overview

The table IGR_I_E_ORGUNITS is a core data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Student System (IGS). Its primary function is to manage the relationship between different inquiry types and the organizational units responsible for handling them. This table acts as a configuration and routing mechanism, ensuring that inquiries or prospective student applications are correctly associated with the appropriate administrative department or party within the institution. By defining these relationships, the table supports operational workflows in the admissions and inquiry management processes, enabling structured data assignment and responsibility tracking.

Key Information Stored

The table's structure centers on linking three key entities. The primary identifier is the ENT_ORG_UNIT_ID, which serves as the table's unique primary key. The two critical foreign key columns establish the core relationships: INQUIRY_TYPE_ID links to a specific classification of inquiry, and PARTY_ID references a party in the Trading Community Architecture (TCA) registry (HZ_PARTIES), representing the specific organizational unit. Together, the INQUIRY_TYPE_ID and PARTY_ID form a unique constraint (IGR_I_E_ORGUNITS_UK), preventing duplicate assignments for the same inquiry type and organization.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is essential for configuring and reporting on inquiry routing. A common operational use case is determining the responsible organizational unit for a newly submitted inquiry based on its type. Administrators may also run reports to audit or modify these assignments. Sample SQL patterns include retrieving all organizational units for a specific inquiry type, or finding all inquiry types handled by a particular department.

  • To find the assigned party for a specific inquiry type: SELECT party_id FROM igs.igr_i_e_orgunits WHERE inquiry_type_id = :inquiry_type;
  • To list all configured inquiry-type-to-organization mappings: SELECT inquiry_type_id, party_id FROM igs.igr_i_e_orgunits ORDER BY inquiry_type_id;

Related Objects

IGR_I_E_ORGUNITS is integrated into the EBS data model through defined foreign key relationships. The most significant relationship is with the HZ_PARTIES table via the PARTY_ID column, linking the organizational unit to the centralized TCA registry. This ensures consistency in party data across all EBS modules. The table also references another table via its INQUIRY_TYPE_ID column, which is typically a lookup or definition table for inquiry types (the specific referenced table name is not fully detailed in the provided metadata but is implied by the foreign key). The table's primary key (ENT_ORG_UNIT_ID) may be referenced by other objects within the IGS Student System that need to key off this specific assignment record.
