Data class: what the table holds — master data, transaction documents, control/configuration, interface/staging, or an APPS-schema view.
In field listings, K marks a primary-key field.

Boilerplate SQL

Starting point for reading BOM_BILL_OF_MATERIALSon Databricks — real DATE columns need no conversion, and the org anchor and the LAST_UPDATE_DATE watermark are already in place. Set your Unity Catalog location, schema, and org values below; they’re substituted into the SQL and the copy button.

Query parameters
-- ============================================================
-- Table  : BOM_BILL_OF_MATERIALS — The compatibility view legacy queries know BOM headers by — a window onto the structures table under the familiar 11i name
-- Purpose: Column-selected read of BOM_BILL_OF_MATERIALS — auto-generated from field metadata
-- Grain  : One row per inventory org (ORGANIZATION_ID) + BILL_SEQUENCE_ID
-- Notes  : Auto-generated skeleton for Oracle EBS R12 data landed in your lakehouse. Dates are real DATE/TIMESTAMP columns — no conversion needed. WHO audit columns omitted (see the quirks guide); the optional LAST_UPDATE_DATE watermark filter supports incremental extracts. APPS-schema view — land its base tables for extraction; see the table notes.

Extraction note

BOM_BILL_OF_MATERIALSis an APPS-schema convenience view. Land the base tables it joins instead of extracting from the view directly — views can be slow at scale and aren’t guaranteed stable across patches.
