Main Interface and Base Tables in Oracle Apps R12

A quick reference guide for key tables across major Oracle EBS modules.

Understanding Oracle Apps Tables

In Oracle E-Business Suite, data is stored in base tables, which are the final destination for transactional and setup data. To load data from external systems or other modules, Oracle uses interface tables. Data is first loaded into these temporary tables and then validated before being moved to the base tables. This guide provides a list of the most important interface and base tables for key modules.
