There are a lot of useful scripts provided by Oracle to assist with management of the E-Busness Suite. Several such scripts are located in the $FND_TOP/sql directory.
Some of the scripts I have used include
afcmrrq.sql - to display information about concurrent manager processing.
wfstatus.sql - to provide information to Oracle support about workflow processing.
My Oracle Support article Oracle Applications Object Library SQL scripts [ID 108185.1] gives some detailed information on these scripts. This note should be reviewed in order to get a better understanding of the provided scripts. Oracle may have already provided a script you were thinking of creating.

What is that E-Business Suite module?
The module name FASDPAPV is running slow.
Great, what does that mean?
While looking at performance data for Oracle EBS in the system you will see the name of the offending module which is needed to perform searches on My Oracle Support. However, to determine what part of the application is affected it may be helpful to translate that module name to a more descriptive name that provides some insight as to where the module is being used.
The names of the modules do provide some hint as to their purpose. Usually the short name for the Application is included at the begining of the Module name. An Apps DBA can determine the Application from the short name. The Action will indicate if the module is a form or concurrent program.
To retrieve the descriptive name of the module you can run an additional query against the database. I've included some queries below for Forms and Concurrent Programs. These queries will also return a descriptive name of the calling application.
For Form modules:
select app_desc.application_name, app_desc.description, form_desc.user_form_name, form_desc.description
from fnd_form form, fnd_form_tl form_desc, fnd_application_tl app_desc
where form.application_id=app_desc.application_id
and form.form_id=form_desc.form_id
and form.form_name=:Insert_Form_Name
For Concurrent Program modules:
select app_desc.application_name, app_desc.description, prog_desc.user_concurrent_program_name, prog_desc.description
from fnd_concurrent_programs prog, fnd_concurrent_programs_tl prog_desc, fnd_application_tl app_desc
where prog.application_id=app_desc.application_id
and prog.concurrent_program_id=prog_desc.concurrent_program_id
and prog.concurrent_program_name=:Insert_Concurrent_Program_Name
Using the query above, the FASDPAPV module is a concurrent program Mass Depreciation Adjustment Preview Report running for the Assets program.
