Overview

WMS_DISPATCHED_TASKS_HISTORY is the Oracle Warehouse Management (WMS) history table that archives completed material handling tasks dispatched within the warehouse. It is the historical counterpart to WMS_DISPATCHED_TASKS, which holds currently active or open work for warehouse execution. When a dispatched task reaches completion, the corresponding record is moved or copied into WMS_DISPATCHED_TASKS_HISTORY, providing an immutable audit trail of task execution across the facility.

Because the table captures the full lifecycle of a task — dispatch, load, drop-off, and transaction posting — it functions as a system of record for warehouse labor performance, equipment utilization, and material movement reporting. It resides in the WMS schema and is valid in both Oracle EBS 12.1.1 and 12.2.2.

From a Data Vault modeling perspective, the mined metadata suggests classifying this table as a link entity, since its foreign key structure ties together organizations, people, equipment, inventory, and inventory transactions into a single relationship record. Analysts building a warehouse-layer model may treat TASK_ID as the driving business key.

Common Use Cases and Queries

Typical applications include warehouse operator productivity reporting, equipment utilization analysis, task completion auditing, and reconciliation between task execution and posted inventory transactions.

  • Task cycle-time analysis: compute elapsed time from DISPATCHED_TIME to DROP_OFF_TIME grouped by USER_TASK_TYPE and PERSON_ID.
  • Productivity reporting: count completed tasks per operator per shift, joining PERSON_ID to PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F for names.
  • Transaction reconciliation: join TRANSACTION_ID to MTL_MATERIAL_TRANSACTIONS to confirm every completed task produced a posted inventory transaction.
  • Sample SQL: SELECT t.task_id, t.organization_id, t.person_id, t.user_task_type, t.transaction_quantity FROM wms.wms_dispatched_tasks_history t WHERE t.organization_id = :org_id AND t.drop_off_time BETWEEN :start_date AND :end_date;
