Overview

IGS_FI_1098T_BATCHS is an Oracle E-Business Suite table within the IGS (Student System) product family. It stores information regarding the 1098-T filing reported to the Internal Revenue Service. The 1098-T form is the tuition statement that eligible educational institutions furnish to students and to the IRS to report qualified tuition and related expenses, and this table captures the batch-level metadata that governs a given filing run rather than the individual student-level amounts themselves.

The ETRM documentation marks the IGS product family as Obsolete and records the object as "Not implemented in this database." The table is therefore not physically present in the current EBS instance; it is documented for historical and upgrade-reference purposes only. It is relevant to Oracle EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2 environments that historically used the Student System financial aid module for IRS reporting.

The heuristic Data Vault classification mined from the foreign-key structure is satellite-leaning. This suggests a modeling pattern in which IGS_FI_1098T_BATCHS is best treated as a descriptive satellite attached to a business key supplied by its parent setup/lookup object (via TAX_YEAR_NAME), rather than as an independent hub or a transactional link.

Key Information Stored

The table comprises 15 documented columns. The most significant are:

• BATCH_ID — the surrogate primary key (IGS_FI_1098T_BATCHS_PK) that uniquely identifies each filing batch.
• BATCH_NAME and TAX_YEAR_NAME — together forming the unique business-key candidate IGS_FI_1098T_BATCHS_U1. The batch name is a user-meaningful identifier, while the tax year name ties the batch to the reporting period.
• FILE_NAME — the name of the generated magnetic media or electronic file submitted to the IRS.
• FILLING_MODE — the method by which the filing was submitted (for example, electronic versus paper).
• OBJECT_VERSION_NUMBER — the optimistic-locking column used by the EBS framework to detect concurrent updates.
• REQUEST_ID, PROGRAM_ID, PROGRAM_APPLICATION_ID, and PROGRAM_UPDATE_DATE — concurrent program context columns identifying the concurrent request that created or updated the batch, supporting audit and re-run diagnostics.
• CREATED_BY, CREATION_DATE, LAST_UPDATED_BY, LAST_UPDATE_DATE, and LAST_UPDATE_LOGIN — the standard EBS "Who" audit columns.

The distinction between the surrogate key (BATCH_ID) and the natural/business-key candidate (BATCH_NAME + TAX_YEAR_NAME) is important when loading or reconciling data, since either may be used as the lookup path depending on the integration.

Common Use Cases and Queries

Typical scenarios center on auditing and re-verifying IRS 1098-T filings. A common query retrieves all batches for a given tax year:

SELECT batch_id, batch_name, file_name, filling_mode
FROM   igs_fi_1098t_batchs
WHERE  tax_year_name = :p_tax_year;

Because the batch drives the downstream student-level forms, joins against the detail tables are frequent to reconcile counts and totals. Concurrent-manager diagnostics use REQUEST_ID to trace which program populated a batch, and the "Who" columns support change tracking across remediation cycles.

Related Objects

The documented foreign key ties this table to its parent setup object and there are implied references from the 1098-T detail and reporting structures:

• IGS_FI_1098T_SETUP — parent setup table; joined via IGS_FI_1098T_BATCHS.TAX_YEAR_NAME = IGS_FI_1098T_SETUP.TAX_YEAR_NAME.
• 1098-T detail/reporting tables in the IGS financial aid family, which join to BATCH_ID.

In summary, IGS_FI_1098T_BATCHS is a satellite-style batch master for IRS 1098-T filings, keyed by BATCH_ID with a BATCH_NAME/TAX_YEAR_NAME business key, and dependent on IGS_FI_1098T_SETUP for its tax-year context.
