I know from previous experience with training and PRIA records that...
Fed observation is NOT a checkride and is NOT reported via PRIA if "incomplete". It gets entered into PRIA only when completed, never when incomplete. Technically it is an observation of the training/checking process, so could be incomplete for reasons unrelated to applicant performance. In theory. In reality it's more of a line check of both applicant and check airman.
Not sure about a failed oral for a type you already have. I think no for PRIA, but if you completely failed the entire upgrade process that would go in PRIA. They also don't report if you have to repeat a sim session along the way either.
Whether you admit an incomplete Fed observation to an airline is up to you... but think about how you're going to respond at the interview if they ask "looks like your IOE was longer than what we're used to seeing. Did you have any problems with that?"
I was using inaccurate wording. By fed ride, I meant 121.440(b) line check which often is done with the 121.434(c)(1)(ii) fed ride.
If you unsat that, it will be in your PRIA.
If you have a failed event with a check airman, it does not matter what you call it, it will be in your PRIA. So if your failed oral was with a check airman, it's in your PRIA. PRIA is very clear about this.
By absolute minimum, any event you had with a check airman will be in your PRIA. The "qualifications, proficiency, or professional competence" leaves some leeway, but the "including comments and evaluations by a check airman" is clear.
My previous shop included every single simulator training report in the PRIA. Nothing prevents them from doing that.
