IPolicyHeaderAssociation

IPolicyHeaderAssociation extends IPolicyAssociation with the additional display fields needed to present an associated policy in the policy-header UI: the associated policy's name, agent, agency sequence number, status description, and period effective/expiration dates. IPolicyHeaderDataProvider.PolicyAssociations returns a collection of these records.

Purpose

• Extend the base IPolicyAssociation contract with human-readable, display-ready fields for the associated policy.
• Supply the period effective/expiration dates so the header UI can show the current validity window of the associated policy.

Context

• Namespace: SAIF.Business.Policy
• Assembly/package: SAIF.Business.Policy

Inherited public members

Member	Signature	Purpose
PolicyNumber	ReadOnly Property PolicyNumber As Decimal	Inherited from IPolicyAssociation; the policy number of the related policy.
IsParent	ReadOnly Property IsParent As Boolean	Inherited from IPolicyAssociation; indicates whether this record is the parent side of the relationship.
AssociationType	ReadOnly Property AssociationType As IPolicyAssociationType	Inherited from IPolicyAssociation; the type of association linking the two policies.
Equals	Function Equals(ByVal inAssociation As IPolicyAssociation) As Boolean	Inherited from IPolicyAssociation; the concrete implementation in clsPolicyAssociation (SAIF.Business.View.Policy) considers two associations equal when their AssociationType, PolicyNumber, and IsParent all match — the interface itself does not mandate this.*
