Process & Segment Status Records

Overview

Status records tell you where the engine is or where it stopped. They are often more useful than result tables when a process did not complete successfully.

Core Records

Record	Scope	Use
GP_PYE_PRC_STAT	Payee	Tracks overall payee processing state
GP_PYE_SEG_STAT	Segment	Tracks segment-level state
Run control records	Process	Connect batch invocation to calendar groups and restart behavior

Selection Status Examples

Status	Meaning
Active	Selected because the payee is active in the calendar
Inactive	Selected because of positive input, retro, or forwarding despite inactivity
Suspended by User	Manually held out of processing
Suspended by System	Blocked because of another open group or other control issue
Cancelled	Explicitly removed from processing

Calculation Status Examples

Status	Meaning
Calculated	Segment has been calculated
Calculated - Corrected	Segment was recalculated after changes
Frozen	Segment is locked from calculation changes
Finalized	Segment is finalized
Finalized - With Banking	Finalized and banking has already executed
Reversed / Recalculated combinations	Indicate more advanced correction paths in special cases

Process Indicators

Oracle also maintains process indicators such as:

• Cancel
• Calculate
• Finalize
• Freeze
• Identify
• Suspend
• Uncancel
• Unfreeze

These indicators are useful when diagnosing restart, suspension, and operator-action history.

How To Use Them

1. confirm Identify created the expected payees
2. verify whether the segment is open, frozen, suspended, or finalized
3. compare process indicators with operator actions on run control
4. only then move into result-table analysis

Key Takeaways

• Status records are the fastest route to locating runtime failure points.
• Restart decisions should be based on current status, not assumptions.
• Segment status is especially important in retro, segmentation, and off-cycle analysis.
