Reference Information Collection Elements
Reference information collection elements reference database objects that are defined in other Oracle Applications, such as Oracle Inventory, Oracle Work in Process, Oracle Purchasing, and Oracle Order Entry. These collection elements are predefined in Oracle Quality.
When the values for these collection elements can be derived as transactions are entered and saved in other Oracle Applications, they are referred to as context elements since their values are derived "in the context of" transactions. For example, the quality results value for the context element Item, can be derived as assembly items are scrapped (moved into a scrap intraoperation step) in the Oracle Work in Process Move Transactions window. Quality results values for Item can also be derived as you enter receiving transactions in the Oracle Purchasing Receiving Transactions window.
All context elements are reference information collection elements, but not all reference information collection elements are context elements. All context elements can be used as triggers for collection transactions. See: Quality Collection Transactions and Collection Transactions and Context Element Relationships.
Reference information collection elements are defined as mandatory, enabled, and displayed and cannot be deleted from Oracle Quality.
