# clsAttorneyTableManager

`clsAttorneyTableManager` drives the attorney assignment table maintenance screens: attorney conflicts, policy assignments, worker assignments, schedules, time off, and out-of-town rotation. It also exposes AJAX endpoints for policy/conflict lookups (`ProcessAjaxRequest`) and produces rotation/conflict reports, which couples this Application-tier class directly to `System.Web.HttpContext`/`HttpRequest` rather than keeping it a UI-agnostic service layer. It inherits `LegalManagerBase` (this library) → `ClaimAppManager` (`SAIF.Application.Claim`).

## Purpose
- Maintain the attorney assignment reference tables: conflicts, policy assignments, worker assignments, schedules, time off, and out-of-town rotation.
- Serve AJAX policy/conflict lookup requests directly from `HttpContext.Current.Request`, returning JSON via `JavaScriptSerializer`.
- Produce rotation/conflict reports for the attorney-table maintenance screens.

## Context
- Namespace: `SAIF.Application.Claim.Legal`
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Application.Claim.Legal.dll` (embedded library, referenced by the `Legal` web front end)

## Public members
| Member | Signature | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `New(inDatabase, inSecurityPrincipal)` | `Public Sub New(inDatabase As String, inSecurityPrincipal As clsSecurityPrincipal)` | Constructs the manager for the given database context and authenticated principal, calling into `LegalManagerBase.New`. |
| `ProcessAjaxRequest()` | `Public Sub ProcessAjaxRequest()`* | Reads `HttpContext.Current.Request` parameters directly and writes a JSON response for policy/conflict AJAX lookups, coupling this class to the ASP.NET web tier. |
| `AttorneyConflictCol` | `Public ReadOnly Property AttorneyConflictCol As clsAttorneyConflictCollection`* | Exposes the attorney-conflict collection backing the conflicts maintenance grid. |
| `AttorneyScheduleCol` | `Public ReadOnly Property AttorneyScheduleCol As clsAttorneyScheduleCollection`* | Exposes the attorney schedule/time-off collection backing the schedule maintenance grid. |
| `GetRotationReport()` | `Public Function GetRotationReport() As String`* | Produces the out-of-town rotation/conflict report content for printing/export. |

## Behavioral notes
- Direct `HttpContext.Current`/`HttpRequest` usage in `ProcessAjaxRequest` is a tighter coupling to the ASP.NET web tier than the rest of this library's manager classes typically exhibit — this Application-layer class is web-request-aware rather than a pure UI-agnostic service*.
- Reference-table maintenance here (conflicts, assignments, schedules, rotation) is separate from the claim-context lifecycle inherited from `LegalManagerBase`; most operations are scoped to attorney/policy reference data rather than a single legal case*.

## Constraints and usage notes
- Callers invoking `ProcessAjaxRequest` must supply the expected request parameters via `HttpContext.Current.Request`; there is no strongly-typed method overload for AJAX callers**.
