Overview

The table OZF_CLAIM_TYPES_ALL_TL is a core translation table within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Trade Management module (OZF). Its primary function is to store language-specific, translatable descriptions for Claim Type codes. In a multi-language deployment of EBS 12.1.1 or 12.2.2, this table enables the user interface and reports to display the appropriate Claim Type name based on the user's session language. It operates as the descriptive counterpart to the base transactional table, OZF_CLAIM_TYPES_ALL_B, which holds the non-translatable seed data and business logic for claim types. This separation of translatable and non-translatable data is a standard architectural pattern in Oracle Applications, supporting global implementations.

Key Information Stored

The table's structure is typical of an EBS translation table. The most critical columns include the foreign key CLAIM_TYPE_ID, which links each row to a unique record in the base table OZF_CLAIM_TYPES_ALL_B. The LANGUAGE column identifies the language of the translation (e.g., 'US' for American English, 'KO' for Korean). The SOURCE_LANG column typically indicates the language of the original source record. The central descriptive column is CLAIM_TYPE_NAME, which holds the translated name for the claim type as it should appear in the application. Additional standard columns like CREATION_DATE, CREATED_BY, LAST_UPDATE_DATE, and LAST_UPDATED_BY track row history.

Common Use Cases and Queries

The primary use case is retrieving user-friendly claim type names for UI forms, LOVs, and reports in a multi-lingual context. A standard query joins this table with its base table, filtered by the session language. For example, to list all active claim types for the current session language, a developer might use:

  • SELECT b.CLAIM_TYPE_CODE, tl.CLAIM_TYPE_NAME
  • FROM OZF_CLAIM_TYPES_ALL_B b,
  • OZF_CLAIM_TYPES_ALL_TL tl
  • WHERE b.CLAIM_TYPE_ID = tl.CLAIM_TYPE_ID
  • AND tl.LANGUAGE = userenv('LANG')
  • AND b.ENABLED_FLAG = 'Y';

Another common scenario is data migration or setup, where scripts must populate this table with translated values for each supported language after seeding the base table with CLAIM_TYPE_ID values.

Related Objects

As documented in the provided ETRM metadata, this table has a direct and singular relationship with its base table. The relationship is defined by a foreign key constraint where OZF_CLAIM_TYPES_ALL_TL.CLAIM_TYPE_ID references OZF_CLAIM_TYPES_ALL_B. This is a classic base/translation (B/TL) table pair in Oracle EBS. The base table OZF_CLAIM_TYPES_ALL_B is the authoritative source for the claim type definition, while this translation table provides the language-specific labels. Any application form, concurrent program, or API that displays a claim type name will typically perform a join to this table using the CLAIM_TYPE_ID and the user's session language to fetch the correct translation.
