Overview

The APPS.OE_INF_POPULATE_PUB package body is a public (PUB-classified) PL/SQL API within the Oracle E-Business Suite Order Management (ONT) module. Its central business function is to populate the Order Management open interface tables from existing order, pricing, credit, lot/serial, and payment records so that the interface processing concurrent programs can validate, transform, and import that data into the transactional order schema. In practice, this package supports the movement of order data into the interface layer, including header, line, price adjustment, sales credit, lots/serials, and payment detail records. The dependency chain shows that it both consumes and feeds the *_IFACE_ALL tables (OE_HEADERS_IFACE_ALL, OE_LINES_IFACE_ALL, OE_PRICE_ADJS_IFACE_ALL, OE_CREDITS_IFACE_ALL, OE_LOTSERIALS_IFACE_ALL) while also reading the corresponding base tables (OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL, OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL, OE_PRICE_ADJUSTMENTS, OE_SALES_CREDITS, OE_PAYMENTS, OE_LOT_SERIAL_NUMBERS). It uses FND_API for the standard API error/return conventions and OE_DEBUG_PUB for debug logging.

Key Procedures and Functions

The documented package exposes four program units:

  • POPULATE_INTERFACE — The primary driver procedure. It orchestrates the population of the Order Management interface tables from source order data, handling headers, lines, price adjustments, sales credits, lot/serial records, and payment information in the appropriate sequence.
  • GET_LINK_TO_LINE_REF — A helper function that returns the link-to line reference for a given order line, which is essential for correctly correlating interface rows to their parent/child line hierarchy during population.
  • GET_TOP_MODEL_LINE_REF — A helper function that returns the top model line reference, used to resolve configuration/model relationships for model and option lines when populating the interface.
  • GET_LINE_REF_FROM_LINE_ID — A utility that translates an internal line identifier into its corresponding line reference, allowing interface rows to be keyed against the correct order line.

The three GET_* routines serve as supporting reference resolvers consumed by POPULATE_INTERFACE and, potentially, by external custom code that needs consistent line-reference resolution.

Tables Accessed

The package reads and writes a defined set of Order Management tables. Interface tables written or manipulated include OE_HEADERS_IFACE_ALL, OE_LINES_IFACE_ALL, OE_PRICE_ADJS_IFACE_ALL, OE_CREDITS_IFACE_ALL, and OE_LOTSERIALS_IFACE_ALL. Source/base tables read include OE_ORDER_HEADERS_ALL, OE_ORDER_LINES_ALL (and the OE_ORDER_LINES synonym), OE_PRICE_ADJUSTMENTS, OE_SALES_CREDITS, OE_PAYMENTS, OE_LOT_SERIAL_NUMBERS, and OE_LOT_SERIAL_NUMBERS/lot-serial references. Critically for the searcher's query, the package also references the synonyms OE_PAYMENTS_INTERFACE and OE_PAYMENTS. This indicates that payment-related interface population is within scope — relevant when payment records must be staged alongside order interface data. No other database object references this package, so it is strictly a top-level utility API rather than a dependency of another module.

Usage Notes

Because the package is classified public and is referenced by no other database objects, it is typically invoked directly — either from Order Management forms, from the standard interface concurrent programs that process staged order data, or from custom PL/SQL that must populate the open interface tables from existing order structures. A common pattern is building wrapper scripts that call POPULATE_INTERFACE to seed OE_*_IFACE_ALL tables (including OE_PAYMENTS_INTERFACE) before running the standard Order Import concurrent request. Callers should honor the FND_API return-status convention and consult OE_DEBUG_PUB output when troubleshooting. The GET_* reference-resolution functions may be reused independently to derive line and model references consistently with the interface population logic.
