Delete legal person

This operation removes a legal person (or other-firm) entry after delegating an in-use check to the business tier, blocking the deletion when the person is currently referenced.

Field Value
Operation ID OP-LGL-013
Trigger clsLegalPersonManager.DeletePerson() invoked
Inputs Person ID
Outputs Person removed, or blocked with an error message
Primary components clsLegalPersonManager.DeletePerson
Entry point SAIF.Application.Claim.Legal\clsLegalPersonManager.vb

Steps

  1. DeletePerson() is invoked for a target person ID. Person-type context is populated from the cached LEGAL_PERSON_TYPE_CODE lookup (SQL-015).
  2. Delegate the "in-use" check to clsLegalPerson.CanDeleteLegalPerson.

Origin: delegates to SAIF.Business.Claim.Legal (see operations and processes) — the internal step sequence of clsLegalPerson.CanDeleteLegalPerson was not traced in this run's Stage 1 analysis; this callout is inferred/best-effort.* 3. If the check fails (person is in use) (BR-LGL-016): - On failure: block the deletion with "Error: This person is in use, and cannot be deleted." 4. Otherwise: delete the person.

Failure and edge-case behavior

  • Person currently in use: deletion blocked with a user-facing error message; no exception is thrown to the caller.
