EAM Activity, Asset group, and Asset Number links inventory tables

 In Oracle E-Business Suite R12, linking EAM activities, asset groups,

and asset numbers with inventory tables involves understanding how inventory items are utilized

within Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) operations. Below are some potential links between EAM activities,

asset groups, asset numbers, and inventory tables:

EAM Module Tables:

----------------------

1. EAM_ACTIVITIES: Contains information about maintenance activities, including activity IDs, descriptions, types, etc.

2. EAM_ASSET_GROUPS: Stores details about asset groups, such as group IDs, descriptions, etc.

3. EAM_ASSETS: Holds data related to assets, including asset IDs, descriptions, statuses, etc.

Inventory Module Tables:

-----------------------

1. MTL_SYSTEM_ITEMS_B: Stores basic item information, including inventory item IDs, descriptions, etc.

2. MTL_CATEGORY_SETS: Contains information about category sets used to categorize inventory items.

3. MTL_CATEGORIES_B: Holds data about categories that inventory items belong to.

Potential Join Links:

-------------------------

1. Join between EAM Activity and Inventory Item:

   - This could be a logical link where certain maintenance activities are associated with specific inventory items.

     For example, if a maintenance activity requires the use of a specific part stored in inventory.

   - No direct link between EAM activities and inventory items might exist in the base tables.

     However, you can establish a link based on business logic or custom attributes.

2. Join between EAM Asset Group and Inventory Category:

   - If there is a correlation between EAM asset groups and inventory categories,

     you can join these tables based on common attributes such as category IDs.

   - `EAM_ASSET_GROUPS.CATEGORY_ID = MTL_CATEGORIES_B.CATEGORY_ID`

3. Join between EAM Asset Number and Inventory Item:

   - If there's a direct relationship between EAM asset numbers and inventory items,

     you can establish a link based on specific attributes or custom mappings.

   - No direct link between asset numbers and inventory items might exist in the base tables.

     However, you can establish a link based on business logic or custom attributes.

It's important to note that the exact join conditions may vary depending on how your organization

has configured and customized Oracle E-Business Suite. You may need to incorporate additional tables or custom attributes

based on your specific implementation and business requirements.
