clsAssignmentManager¶

clsAssignmentManager runs the attorney assignment batch process (RunAssignmentProcess), which executes inside an explicit transaction and — outside of Production — runs in a "testing" mode (Business rules). After the process runs it exposes assignment results/report data for display, and separately synchronizes assigned-case matter/activity data to Guidewire, skipping the sync when no attorney is assigned and logging (rather than surfacing) any Guidewire call failure (Business rules). It inherits LegalManagerBase (this library) → ClaimAppManager (SAIF.Application.Claim).

Purpose¶

Run the attorney assignment batch process against the business-layer clsAssignmentProcess, wrapping execution in an explicit transaction with rollback-on-exception.
Run the batch process in "testing" mode outside of Production so non-Prod runs do not affect live assignment state (Business rules).
Retrieve assignment results and report data for display after the batch process completes.
Push matter and activity data for assigned cases to Guidewire, gated on an attorney being assigned and tolerant of integration failures (Business rules).

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`.
`Testing`	`Public ReadOnly Property Testing As Boolean`	Indicates whether the assignment batch process should run in test mode; true whenever `AppGlobal.EnvironmentService.GetApplicationEnvironment() <> Prod` (Business rules).
`RunAssignmentProcess()`	`Public Sub RunAssignmentProcess()`	Instantiates `clsAssignmentProcess(DPI, Testing)`, runs it inside an explicit transaction (`OnTransactionStart`/`OnTransactionStop`), and rethrows any exception after ensuring the transaction is stopped.
`AssignmentList`	`Public ReadOnly Property AssignmentList As clsAssignmentListCollection`*	Exposes the summary list of assignment results produced by the last `RunAssignmentProcess()` call.
`AssignmentDetail`	`Public ReadOnly Property AssignmentDetail As clsAssignmentDetailCollection`*	Exposes the detailed per-case results produced by the last `RunAssignmentProcess()` call.
`SendDataToGw()`	`Public Sub SendDataToGw()`	Builds a `GwMatterRequest` from the assigned case's schedule data and calls the Guidewire `GwMatterApi` client, skipping the call when no attorney is assigned and logging (not throwing) on failure (Business rules).
`CreateScheduleActivity()`	`Public Sub CreateScheduleActivity()`*	Pushes a Guidewire claim activity (hearing/mediation reserve reminder, due in 30 days) for `HEAR`/`MED` schedule types after a successful matter sync.

Behavioral notes¶

RunAssignmentProcess() delegates its internal step sequence entirely to SAIF.Business.Claim.Legal.clsAssignmentProcess.RunAssignmentProcess; that library's own operation documentation should be consulted for the batch process's detailed logic*.
SendDataToGw() retries a failed Create route call as an Update route call before giving up and logging the exception via Logging.clsLogError.CreateError — Guidewire sync failures never fail the underlying case save (Business rules).

Constraints and usage notes¶

RunAssignmentProcess() must run within the explicit transaction it manages; callers should not wrap it in an outer transaction that conflicts with OnTransactionStart/OnTransactionStop*.

Note: Statements marked with * were inferred from code structure, naming conventions, or contextual evidence where direct confirmation was not available in source artifacts.
