DBA Registry SQL Patch
Description:
DBA_REGISTRY_SQLPATCH contains information about the SQL patches that have been installed in the database. A SQL patch is a patch that contains SQL scripts which need to be run after OPatch completes. DBA_REGISTRY_SQLPATCH is updated by the datapatch utility. Each row contains information about an installation attempt (apply or roll back) for a given patch.

Executive Summary
The DBA Registry SQL Patch report tracks the history of SQL patches applied to the database. In modern Oracle versions (12c+), binary patches (applied via opatch) often require a post-install SQL step (applied via datapatch). This report confirms that the SQL portion of the patch was applied successfully.
Business Challenge
- Patch Verification: “The binary patch is installed, but did the
datapatchutility run successfully?” - Audit Trail: “When was the ‘Release Update 19.18’ applied to this database?”
- Troubleshooting: “Why are we seeing errors related to a patch that was supposed to be fixed?” (Maybe the SQL step failed).
Solution
This report queries DBA_REGISTRY_SQLPATCH.
Key Features:
- Patch ID: The Oracle bug number associated with the patch.
- Action:
APPLYorROLLBACK. - Status:
SUCCESSorWITH ERRORS. - Description: A brief description of what the patch fixes.
Architecture
The report queries DBA_REGISTRY_SQLPATCH.
Key Tables:
DBA_REGISTRY_SQLPATCH: The inventory of SQL patches.
Impact
- Compliance: Proves that security patches have been fully implemented (both binary and SQL).
- Stability: Prevents “half-patched” states where the binaries are new but the data dictionary is old.
- Version Control: Provides a clear timeline of database software changes.
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.

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.

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.
