Overview

APPS.IGSFV_USEC_REFERENCES is a read-only Oracle E-Business Suite view that consolidates reference code data associated with unit section references in the Student Systems (IGS) product family, part of the Oracle Student System / Higher Education data model. The view presents a denormalized, join-ready projection that combines reference code assignments with their parent unit section reference records and the descriptive text of the reference code type. Its role in EBS reporting and integration is to provide a single query source that resolves reference code identifiers into human-readable titles and descriptions without requiring downstream consumers to reproduce the multi-table join themselves. The view is defined with the WITH READ ONLY clause, which signals that it is intended strictly for query and extraction activity rather than DML.

Underlying Base Objects

Per the documented view text, IGSFV_USEC_REFERENCES is defined over three base tables:

  • IGS_PS_USEC_REF_CD — aliased as US; supplies the reference code type, reference code, description, the unit section reference code identifier, and the unit section reference identifier, along with audit columns.
  • IGS_GE_REF_CD_TYPE — aliased as RE; supplies the descriptive text for the reference code type via RE.DESCRIPTION.
  • IGS_PS_USEC_REF — aliased as USR; supplies the unit section reference title via USR.TITLE.

The joins are established on two equality predicates: US.REFERENCE_CODE_TYPE equals RE.REFERENCE_CD_TYPE, and US.UNIT_SECTION_REFERENCE_ID equals USR.UNIT_SECTION_REFERENCE_ID. The metadata records no documented referenced base objects beyond those visible in the view text, and no owner is documented.

Key Columns

Common Use Cases and Queries

Typical usage includes operational reporting on reference codes attached to unit sections, data extraction for integrations, and lookups that must resolve both code and title in a single pass.

  • Listing reference codes for a specific unit section reference by filtering on UNIT_SECTION_REFERENCE_ID.
  • Producing reports grouped by REFERENCE_CODE_TYPE_DESC to show the distribution of reference types.
  • Joining the view to other IGS objects on UNIT_SECTION_REFERENCE_ID or USEC_REFERENCE_CODE_ID.

Sample query:

SELECT reference_code_type,
       reference_code,
       reference_code_desc,
       unit_section_reference_title
FROM   apps.igsfv_usec_references
WHERE  unit_section_reference_id = :p_unit_section_reference_id
ORDER  BY reference_code_type, reference_code;

Because the view is read-only and joins three base tables, query performance benefits from indexed access on the join keys. The REFERENCE_CODE_ID and REFERENCE_DESCRIPTION columns are deliberately projected as NULL and should not be relied upon for data retrieval.
