Overview

The PV_GE_RESP_MAP_RULES table is a core data object within the Oracle E-Business Suite Partner Management (PV) module, specifically for releases 12.1.1 and 12.2.2. It serves as the master repository for defining responsibility mapping rules. These rules are central to the Partner Management system's security and data access model, governing how application responsibilities are assigned or mapped to partner users based on specific criteria, such as their association with a partner program. The table's primary function is to store the rule definitions that the application logic subsequently evaluates to determine appropriate responsibility assignments, ensuring partners have the correct access to perform their designated tasks within the EBS environment.

Key Information Stored

While the provided metadata does not list all columns, the documented primary and foreign keys reveal the essential data structure. The primary identifier is the RESP_MAP_RULE_ID, a unique system-generated key for each rule. A critical foreign key is PROGRAM_ID, which links each mapping rule to a specific partner program defined in the PV_PARTNER_PROGRAM_B table. This relationship indicates that responsibility mapping is often scoped at the program level. Other columns, inferred from the table's purpose, would typically store rule criteria (e.g., partner type, role), the target responsibility to be assigned, effective dates, and the rule's execution sequence or priority.

Common Use Cases and Queries

The primary use case is the automated provisioning of responsibilities to partner users during processes like partner registration or program enrollment. Administrators may also query this table to audit or report on the configured security rules. A common reporting query would join the rule definitions to the partner program details to understand the responsibility landscape per program. For troubleshooting, one might trace which rule was applied to a specific partner responsibility assignment by joining to the PV_GE_PTNR_RESPS table on the RESP_MAP_RULE_ID.

  • Sample Query: SELECT rule.resp_map_rule_id, prog.name program_name FROM pv_ge_resp_map_rules rule, pv_partner_program_b prog WHERE rule.program_id = prog.program_id ORDER BY prog.name;

Related Objects

The table maintains defined relationships with several other Partner Management objects, as per the provided foreign key metadata.

  • PV_PARTNER_PROGRAM_B: The primary parent table. Each rule is associated with a specific Partner Program via the PROGRAM_ID column.
  • PV_GE_PTNR_RESPS: This table, which stores actual partner responsibility assignments, references PV_GE_RESP_MAP_RULES twice through the column SOURCE_RESP_MAP_RULE_ID. This indicates that a record in PV_GE_PTNR_RESPS can track which specific mapping rule was the source of its creation.

The primary key constraint PV_GE_RESP_MAP_RULES_PK on RESP_MAP_RULE_ID ensures data integrity for these relationships.
