clsCoverageBTaskCollection

clsCoverageBTaskCollection retrieves Coverage B tasks and lazily caches a single category-code lookup per collection so repeated CategoryDescr reads across rows do not each hit the code table.

Purpose

• Retrieves Coverage B tasks matching a filter, constrained to COVB-source rows.
• Caches one clsTaskCategoryCodeCollection per collection for the COVB source (Resolve a Coverage B category description).
• Translates a claim number to a claim ID filter entry via a throwaway task (Add a claim number to a Coverage B filter).

Context

• Namespace: SAIF.Business.Tasks.Claim
• Assembly/package: SAIF.Business.Tasks.Claim.dll (embedded)

FilterStartDate	Public Property FilterStartDate As Date	Echoes the start-date filter used for retrieval.
FilterEndDate	Public Property FilterEndDate As Date	Echoes the end-date filter used for retrieval.
Add(clsCoverageBTask)	Public Overloads Sub Add(task As clsCoverageBTask)	Adds a Coverage B task to the collection.
Item(Integer)	Public Default ReadOnly Property Item(index As Integer) As clsCoverageBTask	Returns the task at the given ordinal position.
Item(guid)	Public Overloads ReadOnly Property Item(guid As Guid) As clsCoverageBTask	Returns the task matching the given GUID identity.
GetCategoryDescr(categoryCode)	Public Function GetCategoryDescr(categoryCode As String) As String	Lazily loads and caches a COVB category collection, returning the matching description (Resolve a Coverage B category description).
Shared NewTaskCollection(dpi)	Public Shared Function NewTaskCollection(dpi As IDataPortalInfo) As clsCoverageBTaskCollection	Factory that creates an empty Coverage B task collection bound to the data portal.
Shared GetTasks(dpi, CoverageBTaskCriteria)	Public Shared Function GetTasks(dpi As IDataPortalInfo, criteria As CoverageBTaskCriteria) As clsCoverageBTaskCollection	Retrieves a filtered Coverage B task collection.
Overrides NewTask()	Protected Overrides Function NewTask() As iTask	Returns a new clsCoverageBTask instance for materialization.
CoverageBTaskCriteria.AddClaimNum(claimNum)	Public Sub AddClaimNum(claimNum As String)	Resolves a claim number to a claim ID and adds it to the ClaimList filter using a throwaway task (Add a claim number to a Coverage B filter).

Inherited public members

Members in this section are inherited from clsTaskCollection in SAIF.Business.Tasks. They are available on this type through inheritance.

Member	Signature	Purpose	Origin
Count	Public ReadOnly Property Count As Integer	Returns the number of tasks currently held in the collection.†	SAIF.Business.Tasks — clsTaskCollection
Save()	Public Overridable Function Save() As clsTaskCollection	Applies edits and persists each contained task through the inherited stored-procedure path.†	SAIF.Business.Tasks — clsTaskCollection

Behavioral notes

• The category-description cache is per-collection, so standalone (non-child) clsCoverageBTask instances load their own category collection instead of sharing the cache.*

Constraints and usage notes

• AddClaimNum constructs a throwaway task purely to translate claim number to claim ID — a per-call database round trip whose performance impact was not measured.*

Note: Statements marked with * were inferred from code structure, naming conventions, or contextual evidence where direct confirmation was not available in source artifacts. Statements marked with ** could not be confirmed; treat as unknown until verified. Statements marked with † were retrieved from dependency library documentation via the Legends CLI RAG service. They describe inherited behavior from the indicated origin library and should be verified if the dependency version changes.
