Search Results pqp_vehicle_allocations_f

The PQP_VEHICLE_ALLOCATIONS_F table in Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) 12.1.1 or 12.2.2 is a critical data structure within the Payroll module, specifically designed to manage vehicle allocations for employees. This table stores detailed information about company-provided vehicles, including allocation details, cost assignments, and associated benefits. It integrates with other Oracle HR and Payroll tables to ensure accurate compensation processing and compliance with organizational policies.

Purpose and Functional Overview

The primary purpose of PQP_VEHICLE_ALLOCATIONS_F is to track vehicle-related benefits assigned to employees, including:

• Allocation Details: Records vehicle assignments, including start and end dates, ensuring proper tracking of active allocations.
• Cost Distribution: Captures cost-sharing arrangements between employees and employers, such as personal usage contributions or lease payments.
• Tax and Compliance: Supports tax calculations by storing taxable benefit values, mileage data, and other compliance-related metrics.

This table is part of Oracle's Advanced Benefits and Compensation Workbench functionalities, enabling organizations to automate and streamline vehicle benefit administration.

Key Columns and Relationships

The table includes columns such as:

• VEHICLE_ALLOCATION_ID: Primary key uniquely identifying each allocation record.
• PERSON_ID: Foreign key linking to PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F, associating allocations with employees.
• BUSINESS_GROUP_ID: Links to HR_ORGANIZATION_UNITS for multi-org support.
• EFFECTIVE_START_DATE / EFFECTIVE_END_DATE: Date-tracked columns to manage allocation validity periods.
• VEHICLE_TYPE_CODE: Classifies vehicles (e.g., sedan, SUV) for reporting and policy enforcement.
• TAXABLE_BENEFIT_VALUE: Stores the monetary value of the benefit for payroll processing.

It integrates with tables like PQP_VEHICLE_TYPES_F (vehicle classifications) and PAY_ELEMENT_ENTRIES_F (for payroll element creation).

Technical Considerations

1. Date-Tracking: Like other Oracle HR tables, it uses effective dating to maintain historical records.
2. Multi-Org Support: Aligns with Oracle's Multi-Org Access Control (MOAC) through BUSINESS_GROUP_ID.
3. Indexing: Typically indexed on PERSON_ID and VEHICLE_ALLOCATION_ID for performance.

Integration Points

• Payroll Processing: Taxable benefits are passed to PAY_RUN_RESULTS during payroll runs.
• Compensation Workbench: Used to model vehicle benefits as part of total rewards.
• Self-Service HR: Employees may view allocations via Oracle Self-Service modules.

Customization and Extensions

Organizations often extend this table with custom attributes (via PQP_VEHICLE_ALLOCATIONS_F_DFF) to capture additional data like:

• Insurance details
• Mileage thresholds
• Department-specific cost centers

Conclusion

The PQP_VEHICLE_ALLOCATIONS_F table is a foundational component for managing vehicle benefits in Oracle EBS, ensuring accurate payroll integration, compliance, and reporting. Its design reflects Oracle's modular approach, enabling seamless interoperability with HR, Payroll, and Compensation modules while supporting organizational customization needs.
