Constants

Centralizes the small set of hard-coded values reused across policy workflows, including service-center contact data, the lowest accepted submission-entry date, and the library's Y/N flag literals.

Purpose

  • Keep shared literal values in one location instead of duplicating them across policy code.
  • Publish the canonical true/false flag values used by legacy integrations.
  • Expose the earliest accepted submission-entry date constant to callers that validate or initialize policy data.

Context

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

Public members

Member Signature Purpose
SERVICE_CENTER_EMAIL_ADDRESS Public Const SERVICE_CENTER_EMAIL_ADDRESS As String = "servicecenter@saif.com" Canonical service-center email address value used by policy components.
SERVICE_CENTER_MAIL_ID Public Const SERVICE_CENTER_MAIL_ID As String = "SERVIC" Mail identifier associated with the policy service center.
MininumSubmissionEntryDate Public Const MininumSubmissionEntryDate As Date = #1/1/1900# Lower-bound submission entry date used when callers need a minimum valid policy date.
TRUE_FLAG Public Const TRUE_FLAG As String = "Y" Canonical legacy true flag literal.
FALSE_FLAG Public Const FALSE_FLAG As String = "N" Canonical legacy false flag literal.

Behavioral notes

  • The class contains only constants; no instance state or helper methods are defined.

Constraints and usage notes

  • The source spelling is MininumSubmissionEntryDate; consumers should use that exact identifier.
