Overview

The IGS_FI_WAV_STD_PGMS table is a core data structure within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Student System (IGS). Its primary function is to manage the assignment of financial waiver programs to individual students. This table acts as the junction point between a student's identity, the specific academic period (fee calendar), and the defined waiver programs available within the system. By maintaining these relationships, it enables the automated application of tuition or fee reductions, discounts, or exemptions to a student's account, which is a critical component of the institution's financial aid and billing operations in EBS.

Key Information Stored

The table's structure centers on linking key identifiers. The WAIVER_STUDENT_ID serves as the unique primary key for each assignment record. The core relationship is defined by a composite foreign key: PERSON_ID identifies the student (linking to HZ_PARTIES), while FEE_CAL_TYPE, FEE_CI_SEQUENCE_NUMBER, and WAIVER_NAME together identify the exact waiver program (linking to IGS_FI_WAIVER_PGMS) applicable for a specific academic calendar instance. This design ensures a student can be associated with multiple waiver programs across different fee periods.

Common Use Cases and Queries

A primary use case is generating reports on student financial aid packages or verifying waiver eligibility during the billing process. Administrators often query this table to list all waivers assigned to a student for a current term or to audit waiver utilization. A typical SQL pattern involves joining to the party and waiver program tables for descriptive information:

  • Student Waiver Report: SELECT p.party_name, wpg.waiver_name, wstd.fee_cal_type, wstd.fee_ci_sequence_number FROM igs_fi_wav_std_pgms wstd JOIN hz_parties p ON wstd.person_id = p.party_id JOIN igs_fi_waiver_pgms wpg ON wstd.fee_cal_type = wpg.fee_cal_type AND wstd.fee_ci_sequence_number = wpg.fee_ci_sequence_number AND wstd.waiver_name = wpg.waiver_name WHERE wstd.person_id = :student_id;
  • Term-specific Waiver Assignments: SELECT person_id, waiver_name FROM igs_fi_wav_std_pgms WHERE fee_cal_type = :cal_type AND fee_ci_sequence_number = :seq_num;

Related Objects

The IGS_FI_WAV_STD_PGMS table has defined foreign key relationships with two fundamental EBS tables, ensuring referential integrity:

  • IGS_FI_WAIVER_PGMS: This is the master table defining waiver programs. The relationship is via the composite key (FEE_CAL_TYPE, FEE_CI_SEQUENCE_NUMBER, WAIVER_NAME). A record in IGS_FI_WAV_STD_PGMS cannot exist without a corresponding, valid waiver program definition.
  • HZ_PARTIES (Trading Community Architecture): This table stores the fundamental identity of the student (person or organization). The PERSON_ID column in IGS_FI_WAV_STD_PGMS references PARTY_ID in HZ_PARTIES, linking the waiver assignment to a specific individual within the EBS universal registry.
