Question

Options

• AThe setting up of the Descriptive Flexfield is mandatory.
• BThe Asset Category Flexfield is owned by the Oracle Assets module.
• CThe Descriptive Flexfield attributes are associated with tables in the Oracle Assets module.
• DOnly the Asset Category Key Flexfield is associated with tables In the Oracle Assets module.

• B

• D

Explanation

Option B is correct because the Asset Category Key Flexfield is a seeded Oracle flexfield that belongs specifically to the Oracle Assets module - Oracle owns and maintains it as part of that application's core data structure.

Option C is correct because Descriptive Flexfield (DFF) attributes, even custom ones like the "Vehicle" category DFF, are stored in columns within the Oracle Assets module's underlying database tables (typically in _DFF or extra attribute columns on asset-related tables) - not in separate or external tables.

Option A is wrong because Descriptive Flexfields are always optional - they exist to capture additional information beyond what Oracle's standard fields provide, but no business process requires them to be configured.

Option D is wrong because it contradicts C: both the Key Flexfield and the Descriptive Flexfield are associated with Oracle Assets tables. The DFF attributes physically reside in Oracle Assets table columns, so it's not exclusive to the Key Flexfield.

Memory tip: Think "Key = Core (Oracle-owned structure), Descriptive = Custom data, same house (same module tables)." Both flexfield types live in Oracle Assets' tables - the Key Flexfield defines the category structure, while the DFF just adds extra columns to the same tables.
