CAC Resources Associated with Overheads Setup – Oracle EBS SQL Report
Oracle E-Business Suite SQL report from the Enginatics Library powered by Blitz Report™.
Overview
Report to show which resources are associated with which overheads and which resources are associated with which departments. And find any resources which do not have any overhead associations. If there are no overhead associations the first report column will say “Missing”. If the resource/overhead association exists, the first column of the report will say “Set Up”.
Note: if a resource does not have a cost, the Resource Rate column has a blank or empty value.
Parameters:
Resource/Overhead Cost Type: enter the cost type you wish to report for your resources and overheads. If left blank, depending on your Costing Method, it defaults to your AvgRates or Frozen Cost Type (optional). Category Set 1: any item category you wish, typically the Cost or Product Line category set (optional). Category Set 2: any item category you wish, typically the Inventory category set (optional). Organization Code: enter the specific inventory organization(s) you wish to report (optional). Operating Unit: enter the specific operating unit(s) you wish to report (optional). Ledger: enter the specific ledger(s) you wish to report (optional).

Case Study & Technical Analysis: CAC Resources Associated with Overheads Setup
Executive Summary
The CAC Resources Associated with Overheads Setup report is a configuration audit tool. In Oracle Costing, Overheads (like “Factory Burden”) are often applied based on Resource usage (e.g., “$10 of Overhead for every 1 hour of Labor”). This report validates that the links between Resources and Overheads are correctly established.
Business Challenge
- Under-Absorption: If “Labor” is not linked to “Fringe Benefits”, the product cost will exclude the benefit cost, leading to under-pricing.
- Complexity: A plant might have 50 resources and 10 overheads. Checking the 500 potential combinations manually is error-prone.
- Troubleshooting: “Why is the overhead calculation zero?”
Solution
This report visualizes the matrix.
- Mapping: Shows
Resource->Overhead. - Status: Explicitly flags “Missing” associations where a resource exists but has no overheads linked (if that is the business rule).
- Rates: Shows the basis (Item or Lot) and the rate.
Technical Architecture
- Tables:
cst_resource_overheads,bom_resources. - Logic: Uses a
LEFT JOINto find resources that should have overheads but don’t.
Parameters
- Resource/Overhead Cost Type: (Optional) Defaults to the costing method.
Performance
- Fast: Configuration data.
FAQ
Q: Can a resource have multiple overheads? A: Yes, Labor might attract “Fringe”, “Supervision”, and “Occupancy” overheads. All will be listed.
