Overview

The RG_ROW_SEGMENT_SEQUENCES table is a core data repository within the Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Application Report Generator (RG) module. It functions as a mapping table that defines the precise layout and order of accounting flexfield segments within a financial report's row structure. Its primary role is to store the assignment of specific accounting segments to sequential positions within a defined row order, thereby governing how financial data is organized and displayed horizontally across a generated report. This table is essential for ensuring the accurate and consistent presentation of multidimensional financial information, linking the logical definition of a report's rows to the underlying chart of accounts structure.

Key Information Stored

The table's design centers on maintaining unique assignments between row orders, accounting structures, and segment names. The primary identifier is the system-generated ROW_SEGMENT_SEQUENCE_ID. The critical logical columns are ROW_ORDER_ID, which references a specific report row definition; STRUCTURE_ID, identifying the chart of accounts; and SEGMENT_NAME, specifying the particular segment (e.g., Company, Cost Center). The SEGMENT_SEQUENCE column dictates the left-to-right display order of the assigned segment within the row. The table enforces data integrity through multiple unique constraints, preventing duplicate segment assignments for a given row order and structure.

Common Use Cases and Queries

This table is primarily accessed during the design and generation of financial reports. A common administrative task is to audit the segment sequencing for a specific report row definition. For example, to retrieve all segment assignments for a particular row order, a developer or analyst might execute:

  • SELECT segment_name, segment_sequence FROM rg_row_segment_sequences WHERE row_order_id = <order_id> ORDER BY segment_sequence;

Another critical use case is troubleshooting report output where segments appear in an incorrect order. Queries joining this table with RG_ROW_ORDERS and FND_ID_FLEX_STRUCTURES can validate the configuration against the active accounting flexfield. The data is vital for any custom program or integration that needs to interpret or replicate the row format logic of EBS-generated financial reports.

Related Objects

The RG_ROW_SEGMENT_SEQUENCES table has a direct, documented foreign key relationship with the RG_ROW_ORDERS table via the ROW_ORDER_ID column. This enforces that every segment sequence assignment must belong to a valid, pre-existing row order definition. The table's unique keys also imply a relationship with the FND_ID_FLEX_STRUCTURES table (though not explicitly listed as a foreign key), as the STRUCTURE_ID and SEGMENT_NAME columns correspond to the chart of accounts structure and its component segments. The primary key RG_ROW_SEGMENT_SEQUENCES_PK and unique keys RG_ROW_SEGMENT_SEQUENCES_UK1 and UK2 are referenced by any dependent indexes or integrity constraints within the schema.
