Overview

APPS.OKL_PARTY_ROLE_UV is a read-only database view in the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Release 12.1.1 and 12.2.2 environment. It is owned by the APPS schema and is documented as part of the Oracle Enterprise Trade Relationship Management (ETRM) or Lease and Finance Management (OKL) application family. The view consolidates role and subclass-role information drawn from the Oracle Knowledge and Contracts (OKC) foundation tables, exposing a unified, filtered result set of party roles that are valid and active as of the current system date.

Functionally, OKL_PARTY_ROLE_UV serves as a reporting and integration surface that resolves lookup meaning text for role codes while restricting role visibility based on access level and joint venture object context. Rather than querying the base OKC tables directly, external reports, concurrent programs, and custom integrations can consume this view to obtain a pre-joined, date-effective, and semantically resolved list of roles. This is particularly relevant where the search term "okc_role" applies, since the view derives its lookup semantics from the OKC_ROLE lookup type.

Underlying Base Objects

The view is defined over three documented reference objects:

The two synonyms are joined on RLE_CODE, with effective date filtering applied independently to each source so that only currently valid rows survive. The result is a de-normalized projection combining role definition, subclass association, and lookup meaning.

Key Columns

  • MEANING — The descriptive text returned by OKL_ACCOUNTING_UTIL.GET_LOOKUP_MEANING for lookup type 'OKC_ROLE', giving the readable name of the role.
  • LOOKUP_CODE — The raw role code (RLE_CODE) stored in the base table.
  • LOOKUP_TYPE — A constant literal 'OKC_ROLE', indicating the lookup category from which the meaning is resolved.
  • JTOT_OBJECT_CODE — The joint venture object classification, used in the access filter and typically holding values such as OKX_PARTY, OKX_VENDOR, or OKX_OPERUNIT.
  • SCS_CODE — The subclass code from OKC_SUBCLASS_ROLES, identifying the subclass to which the role belongs.
  • BUY_OR_SELL — A directional indicator distinguishing whether the role participates on the buy or sell side.

Common Use Cases and Queries

Typical usage includes populating role selection lists in custom forms, feeding role data into lease or party reporting, and validating role assignments during integration loads. Because the view enforces date and access-level restrictions, it is well suited to transactional contexts where only current, permitted roles must appear.

Example query to list all currently valid roles with their meanings:

  • SELECT LOOKUP_CODE, MEANING, SCS_CODE, JTOT_OBJECT_CODE, BUY_OR_SELL FROM APPS.OKL_PARTY_ROLE_UV ORDER BY MEANING;

Example query filtering roles by subclass:

  • SELECT MEANING, LOOKUP_CODE FROM APPS.OKL_PARTY_ROLE_UV WHERE SCS_CODE = :p_subclass;
