Aggregate

An aggregate is a cluster of domain objects that can be treated as a single unit.

Aggregate Parent:
General.Contacts.Parties
Aggregate Root:
General.Contacts.Parties

Attributes

Name Type Description
ContactMechanismType ContactMechanismType A=Address; E=e-mail; T=Telephone. Required Default("A") Filter(multi eq) (Inherited from ContactMechanisms)
DisplayText string Uses the repository DisplayTextFormat to build the display text from the attributes and references of current object.
FromDate datetime nullable The first date when the contact mechanism was valid. null means unknown date. Default(Today) Filter(eq;ge;le)
Id guid
IsActive boolean True if the contact mechanism is currently active and can be used to contact the party. Required Default(true) Filter(eq)
IsDefault boolean True - when this is the default contact mechanism for this party; false - otherwise. Required Default(false) Filter(eq)
LineOrd int32 Consecutive number of the contact information. The number is unique within the party. Required
Name string (254) Contact mechanism description. Required Filter(eq;like) (Inherited from ContactMechanisms)
NonSolicitation boolean If true then Don't use the mechanism for solicitation purposes. Required Default(false) Filter(eq)
Notes string (254) nullable Notes for this PartyContactMechanism.
ObjectVersion int32 The latest version of the extensible data object for the aggregate root for the time the object is loaded from the database. Can be used for optimistic locking.
