Overview

PA_EI_CDL_CM_GTEMP2 is a Projects (PA) module table in Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.1 and 12.2.2, owned by the PA schema. The "GTEMP" naming convention traditionally signals a temporary or staging table used during concurrent processing — commonly as a global temporary or working table populated as part of cost distribution, interface, or compilation logic that feeds a downstream process. In the documented 12.2.2 physical schema the table carries 62 columns, with a single documented foreign key: EXPENDITURE_ITEM_ID references PA_EXPENDITURE_ITEMS_ALL. That lone relationship anchors the table to the core expenditure item entity, confirming its role as a cost-detail carrier derived from, and subordinate to, expenditure items.

From a heuristic Data Vault modeling perspective, the mined FK structure classifies this object as standalone. The metadata does not evidence the multi-parent key combinations typical of a hub or link, so it is most reasonably modeled as a satellite-style detail table attached to the expenditure item hub. The surrogate primary key for the row is not separately documented; EXPENDITURE_ITEM_ID, LINE_NUM, and the composite of PROJECT_ID, TASK_ID, and ORGANIZATION_ID function as the practical business-key candidates. Because the table is populated and consumed internally by PA cost processing, its contents should be treated as transient rather than authoritative master data.

Key Information Stored

The table captures cost distribution and compiled cost amount (CDL) detail for expenditure items, along with the rate and currency context needed to interpret those amounts. The ten to fifteen most significant columns are:

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is queried primarily during cost distribution and burdening analysis, and by support teams diagnosing rejected or incomplete expenditure item costing. Typical patterns join it to the expenditure item base and filter by the concurrent request that built the temp data.

  • Reconcile compiled cost amounts back to the expenditure item: SELECT g.EXPENDITURE_ITEM_ID, g.CDL_AMOUNT, e.EXPENDITURE_TYPE, e.EXPENDITURE_ITEM_DATE FROM PA_EI_CDL_CM_GTEMP2 g, PA_EXPENDITURE_ITEMS_ALL e WHERE g.EXPENDITURE_ITEM_ID = e.EXPENDITURE_ITEM_ID;
  • Trace the population run and check for burden summarization rejections via REQUEST_ID and BURDEN_SUM_REJECTION_CODE.
  • Report multi-currency raw costs using the CDL_*_RAW_COST columns paired with their currency codes.
  • Validate rate application by comparing ACCT_RATE_TYPE/rate values against the project and project functional rate pairs for currency conversion discrepancies.
