## Behavioral notes
- This type follows the BOF business-object or collection lifecycle exposed by its public surface.*

## Constraints and usage notes
- Enumeration values are interpreted by business-object properties and helper methods rather than persisted directly in every case.*

> **Note:** Statements marked with * were inferred from code structure, naming conventions, or
> contextual evidence where direct confirmation was not available in source artifacts. Statements
> marked with ** could not be confirmed; treat as unknown until verified.
