Attribute

Details

public String
partyRoleId

Notes:

Unique identifier for PartyRoles

public Integer
partyRoleStatus

Notes:

This attribute is used to track the lifecycle status of a PartyRole. Values include: 0: Unknown 1: Currently being used 2: For future use 3: Archived 4: No longer in use Note that this definition changes the attribute name (to avoid name conflicts) and enumerated value (SID was defined in terms of a Customer, and DEN-ng of course expands this to ANY PartyRole).

public PolicyConditionTimePeriod
partyRoleValidFor

Notes:

the time period that the PartyRole is valid for

public Boolean
isExceptionContact

Notes:

This attribute defines this PartyRole as having the responsibility to handle exceptions that occur in performing the role itself. For example, if a support call is escalated, this attribute identifies a different PartyRole that should take over the call handling. This is done using the PartyRoleDelegatesTo association. The specific role to escalate to is a function of the structure of the organization, as modeled using Party and PartyRole classes.

Here, "owner" is the person or group that is responsible (e.g., organizational, financial, and so forth) for the Resource. Note that the cardinality of the OwnsResource association on the PartyRole side is 1 - this means that a Resource MUST have at least one PartyRole to manage it.
