Overview

XLA_FV_ACCT_HOOKS_PKG is a PL/SQL package owned by the APPS schema in Oracle E-Business Suite. It provides the call accounting program integration APIs required for Federal accounting functionality. The package is declared with AUTHID CURRENT_USER, meaning its procedures execute under the privileges of the invoking user rather than the package owner, a common pattern for hook packages that must respect the caller's security context within the Subledger Accounting (XLA) architecture.

The package was created on 15 August 2005 by W. Chan, as recorded in the package header history. Its source header identifies it as a Federal-specific integration point, which places it within the set of extensions Oracle delivered to support United States federal government accounting requirements — in particular the valuation and budgetary accounting behavior expected by federal agencies running EBS. The xla prefix ties the package to the Subledger Accounting module, while the fv component reflects the Federal valuation context.

Key Procedures and Functions

The package exposes a single documented procedure:

  • MAIN — The entry point for the Federal call accounting program integration. Its parameter signature accepts an application identifier, ledger identifier, process category, end date, accounting mode, and valuation method, along with a set of three numeric and three character security identifiers (security_id_int_1 through _3 and security_id_char_1 through _3). It also accepts a report request identifier and an event name.

The breadth of this signature indicates that MAIN is designed to be invoked directly by a concurrent program, with the security identifier parameters supplied from the concurrent program's parameter set. This allows the procedure to constrain processing to a specific ledger, application, and organizational security context while delegating event-specific behavior through the event name argument.

Tables Accessed

The ETRM metadata for this package does not document any tables referenced through APPS synonyms. This is consistent with the package's role as an integration hook: rather than performing direct DML against application tables, it likely delegates accounting event creation and processing to the underlying Subledger Accounting APIs, which in turn manipulate the XLA tables. Because no table-level dependencies are recorded, the package should be treated as a lightweight orchestration layer rather than a data-processing module. Any direct data access occurs indirectly through the called XLA interfaces.

Usage Notes

XLA_FV_ACCT_HOOKS_PKG is invoked as part of Federal call accounting integration, typically from a concurrent program whose parameters map to the MAIN procedure signature. The parameters for accounting mode, valuation method, and security identifiers are supplied at submission time, allowing accounting to be generated for a defined ledger and date range.

The package is referenced by one other package in the EBS codebase, indicating that its integration logic is consumed by a higher-level program rather than being called in isolation. Customizations should avoid modifying the package directly; Federal extensions are normally implemented through supported hook points and the Subledger Accounting framework. Because the procedure runs under AUTHID CURRENT_USER, callers must have the appropriate privileges on any objects the hook touches, and concurrent program definitions must grant the requesting user access to the ledger and security identifiers passed in.
