Executive Summary

The DBA Jobs report monitors the legacy Oracle Job Scheduler (DBMS_JOB). While newer applications use DBMS_SCHEDULER, many older parts of Oracle E-Business Suite and custom legacy code still rely on DBMS_JOB. This report is essential for ensuring that these background tasks are running successfully.

Business Challenge

  • Silent Failures: "The nightly interface didn't run, but no one got an email."
  • Broken Jobs: "Why is this job marked as 'Broken'?" (It failed 16 times in a row).
  • Performance: "Is this job taking longer and longer to run each night?"

Solution

This report lists all jobs submitted via DBMS_JOB.

Key Features:

  • Last Date/Time: When the job last ran successfully.
  • Next Date/Time: When it is scheduled to run again.
  • Failures: The number of consecutive failures.
  • What: The PL/SQL block that the job executes.

Architecture

The report queries DBA_JOBS.

Key Tables:

  • DBA_JOBS: The legacy job queue table.

Impact

  • Reliability: Ensures critical background processes (like workflow background engines or materialized view refreshes) are active.
  • Troubleshooting: Quickly identifies jobs that have stopped running due to errors.
  • Migration: Helps inventory legacy jobs that should be migrated to the modern DBMS_SCHEDULER.

Oracle E-Business Suite Reporting Library

We provide an open source Oracle EBS SQLs as a part of operational and project implementation support toolkits for rapid Excel reports generation.

Blitz Report™ is based on Oracle EBS forms technology, and hence requires minimal training. There are no data or performance limitations since the output files are created directly from the database without going through intermediate file formats such as XML.

Blitz Report can be used as BI Publisher and Oracle Discoverer replacement tool. Standard Oracle BI Publisher and Discoverer reports can also be imported into Blitz Report for immediate output to Excel. Typically, reports can be created and version tracked within hours instead of days. The concurrent request output automatically opens upon completion without the need for re-formatting.

The Filters, Columns, Rows and Values fields are used to create and deliver the data in pivot table format with full drill down to details.

Blitz Report Pivots

The Excel template upload functionality in Blitz Report allows users to create their own layouts by uploading an Excel template with additional sheets and charts, automatically refreshed when the report runs again. This allows to create custom dashboards and more advanced visualizations of report data.

Blitz Report Dashboard

You can download and use Blitz Report free of charge for your first 30 reports.

The installation and implementation process usually takes less than 1 hour; you can refer to our installation and user guides for specific details.

If you would like to optimize your Oracle EBS implementation and or operational reporting you can visit www.enginatics.com to review great ideas and example usage in blog. Or why not try for yourself in our demo environment.
