FND_FLEX_VALUES

Schema: APPLSYScontrol

The valid values belonging to each flexfield value set — one row per segment value, with enabled/date-effectivity flags and the parent-value linkage dependent and rollup hierarchies use

Module: FoundationNot org-partitioned
Notes

The value's description text is NOT on this table — it lives on the translation companion (FND_FLEX_VALUES_TL, not yet cataloged), so a description join is language-filtered.

What the badges mean
master
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 FND_FLEX_VALUESon 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  : FND_FLEX_VALUES — The valid values belonging to each flexfield value set — one row per segment value, with enabled/date-effectivity flags and the parent-value linkage dependent and rollup hierarchies use
-- Purpose: Column-selected read of FND_FLEX_VALUES — auto-generated from field metadata
-- Grain  : One row per FLEX_VALUE_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.
