# SQL-081: Retrieve Agent

This ORM statement performs a read operation on `Agent` via `IUnitOfWork.GetRepository<T>()`, executed from `Services/SAIF.Services/Policies/SecurityServices/PolicySecurityService.cs (L219, L368)`.

## Classification

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| **SQL ID** | SQL-081 |
| **Operation type** | Read |
| **Execution method** | ORM (NHibernate LINQ) |
| **Database** | Oracle |
| **Schema** | [unqualified]** |
| **Command type** | N/A (ORM-generated) |
| **Business object** | `Agent` |
| **Criteria property** | N/A — ORM |
| **Lifecycle method** | `AgencyBookList (property), GetAgencyIdForProducer` |

## Parameters

| Parameter | Direction | Type | Max length | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `agencyId` | Input | ** | N/A | `ag.Agency.Id == agencyId` → column join via `Agency` (agency_seq_num) → `Agency.Id` |
| `null` | Input | ** | N/A | `ag.ExpirationDate == null` → column agent_exp_date |
| `DateTime.Now` | Input | ** | N/A | `ag.ExpirationDate > …` → column agent_exp_date |
| `agentNumber` | Input | ** | N/A | `agnt.Id == agentNumber` → column agent_num |

## Tables

| Table | Access | Columns used |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [AGENT](../database-tables.md#agent) | SELECT | `agent_num`, `agent_name`, `agent_exp_date`, `agency_seq_num`, `mail_addr_loc_seq_num` |

## LINQ statement

Source: `Services/SAIF.Services/Policies/SecurityServices/PolicySecurityService.cs:219`

```csharp
// Services/SAIF.Services/Policies/SecurityServices/PolicySecurityService.cs:219-221
                    var dataProducers = unitOfWork.GetRepository<Agent>()
                        .Query().Where(ag => ag.Agency.Id == agencyId &&
                                             (ag.ExpirationDate == null || ag.ExpirationDate > DateTime.Now)).ToList();

// Services/SAIF.Services/Policies/SecurityServices/PolicySecurityService.cs:368
            var dataAgent = unitOfWork.GetRepository<Agent>().Query().SingleOrDefault(agnt => agnt.Id == agentNumber);
```

## Sample SQL

> **Inferred SQL:** This SQL was inferred from the LINQ statement above and the NHibernate mappings. It is not concrete SQL from source code; NHibernate generates the executed statement at runtime, so aliases, column order, join syntax, and bind-parameter names may differ.

```sql
-- Inferred from LINQ (NHibernate mapping translation); not concrete SQL
-- Services/SAIF.Services/Policies/SecurityServices/PolicySecurityService.cs:219
SELECT
  A.agent_num,
  A.agent_name,
  A.agent_exp_date,
  A.agency_seq_num,
  A.mail_addr_loc_seq_num
FROM Agent A
WHERE A.agency_seq_num = :agencyId
  AND (A.agent_exp_date IS NULL OR A.agent_exp_date > :now)

-- Services/SAIF.Services/Policies/SecurityServices/PolicySecurityService.cs:368
SELECT
  A.agent_num,
  A.agent_name,
  A.agent_exp_date,
  A.agency_seq_num,
  A.mail_addr_loc_seq_num
FROM Agent A
WHERE A.agent_num = :agentNumber
-- NHibernate expects at most one row
```

Translation notes:
- `DateTime.Now` (L221) -> bind `:now`; NHibernate may evaluate it client-side or translate it to a server date function depending on version.
