Overview

The IGS.IGS_PR_CSS_CLASS_STD table is a core configuration entity within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, specifically for the Oracle Student Management (OSM) product. It functions as a mapping table that defines the criteria for awarding academic class standings (e.g., First Class, Second Class) to students. Its primary role is to store the relationship between a defined class standing schedule, specific class standing codes, and the qualifying academic parameters. The table establishes the rules by which a student's cumulative credit points and academic years of study are evaluated against minimum and maximum thresholds to determine an appropriate class standing for a given program type and period.

Key Information Stored

The table stores the rule definitions for class standing calculations. The IGS_PR_CSS_CLASS_STD_ID column serves as the unique system-generated identifier for each mapping record. The IGS_PR_CS_SCHDL_ID and IGS_PR_CLASS_STD_ID are foreign keys that link to the parent schedule (IGS_PR_CS_SCHDL) and the specific class standing code (IGS_PR_CLASS_STD) respectively. The core business logic is encapsulated in the MIN_CP and MAX_CP columns, which define the inclusive credit point range, and the ACAD_YEAR column, which specifies the applicable number of academic years. Standard WHO columns (CREATED_BY, CREATION_DATE, LAST_UPDATED_BY, LAST_UPDATE_DATE, LAST_UPDATE_LOGIN) track audit information for each row.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is central to automated class standing determination during academic processes like graduation eligibility checks or academic audits. A common operational query involves retrieving all class standing rules for a specific schedule to review or maintain thresholds. For reporting, a join is typically performed to translate foreign key IDs into meaningful descriptions from related tables.
