Overview

The IGS_AD_APPL_ARP table is a core transactional data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite Student System (IGS) module, which is designated as obsolete in the documented releases (12.1.1 / 12.2.2). It serves as the central repository for Application Review Profile information linked to specific application instances. As explicitly noted in its description, this table is classified as a 'high transaction' entity, indicating it is subject to frequent and voluminous data manipulation operations (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) during application processing cycles. Its primary role is to establish and maintain the relationship between an applicant's submitted application and the configured review profiles that govern its evaluation workflow.

Key Information Stored

The table's structure is designed to link application instances to their review processes. The primary key is APPL_ARP_ID, a unique system-generated identifier for each record. The table's critical foreign key columns define its relationships: PERSON_ID, ADMISSION_APPL_NUMBER, NOMINATED_COURSE_CD, and SEQUENCE_NUMBER together link the record to a specific application instance in the IGS_AD_PS_APPL_INST_ALL table. The APPL_REV_PROFILE_ID column references a defined review profile (IGS_AD_APL_REV_PRF_ALL), while APPL_REVPROF_REVGR_ID links to a specific review group within that profile (IGS_AD_APL_RPRF_RGR). This structure allows a single application to be associated with multiple review steps or groups as defined by institutional policy.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is central to queries that track the status and progression of applications through review workflows. Common operational and reporting use cases include identifying all applications currently assigned to a specific review group, auditing the review profile history for a given applicant, and generating workload reports for admissions staff. A typical SQL pattern would join this table to application and person tables to create a review tracking report:

  • SELECT appl.person_id, appl.admission_appl_number, arp.appl_revprof_revgr_id FROM igs_ad_appl_arp arp, igs_ad_ps_appl_inst_all appl WHERE arp.person_id = appl.person_id AND arp.admission_appl_number = appl.admission_appl_number AND arp.nominated_course_cd = appl.nominated_course_cd AND arp.sequence_number = appl.sequence_number AND arp.appl_revprof_revgr_id = :p_review_group_id;

Given its high-transaction nature, performance tuning and indexing strategies are critical for any custom interfaces or reports querying this table.

Related Objects

The IGS_AD_APPL_ARP table has defined foreign key relationships with several other tables in the Student System, forming a key part of the application review data model. As per the metadata, it references the IGS_AD_PS_APPL_INST_ALL table for the core application instance details. It also references the IGS_AD_APL_REV_PRF_ALL table for the master review profile definition and the IGS_AD_APL_RPRF_RGR table for the specific review group. Notably, the metadata indicates the table was "Not implemented in this database" for the documented instance, suggesting it may be a delivered but unused object in some installations or its functionality may have been superseded in the obsolete module.
