SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import business rules

This page captures business rules enforced by this library.

BR-IMG-001 Date field emission

Field Value
Statement A date index field is emitted as MM-dd-yyyy only when it is strictly greater than Date.MinValue and strictly less than Date.MaxValue; otherwise the key is emitted with an empty value. Applies to DocumentDate, ReceivedDate, and TaskDate.
Trigger ToString() serialization
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (ToString method, date-value branches)
Outcome Unset or sentinel dates are transmitted as blanks instead of 01-01-0001, so downstream imaging treats them as "not supplied"*
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

BR-IMG-002 Document date tolerance window emission

Field Value
Statement DocumentDateDays is emitted only when greater than zero; otherwise the key is emitted empty.
Trigger ToString() serialization
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (ToString method)
Outcome A non-positive tolerance window suppresses the date-matching hint (default is 7 days)
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

BR-IMG-003 Image sequence number emission

Field Value
Statement ImageSeqNum is emitted only when greater than zero; otherwise the key is emitted empty.
Trigger ToString() serialization
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (ToString method)
Outcome A new (unsequenced) image is not falsely bound to sequence 0*
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

BR-IMG-004 Page count emission

Field Value
Statement NPages is emitted only when greater than zero; otherwise the key is emitted empty.
Trigger ToString() serialization
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (ToString method)
Outcome Zero or negative page counts are not published; default is 1 page
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

BR-IMG-005 Policy number emission

Field Value
Statement PolicyNum is emitted only when greater than zero; otherwise the key is emitted empty.
Trigger ToString() serialization
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (ToString method)
Outcome Claim-only documents are not indexed against policy 0*
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

BR-IMG-006 Affiliation identifier emission

Field Value
Statement AffiliationId is emitted only when greater than zero; otherwise the key is emitted empty.
Trigger ToString() serialization
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (ToString method)
Outcome Documents with no affiliation context omit the affiliation index*
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb
Field Value
Statement LegalCaseId is emitted only when greater than zero; otherwise the key is emitted empty.
Trigger ToString() serialization
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (ToString method)
Outcome Non-legal documents are not indexed against legal case 0*
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

BR-IMG-008 Construction-time defaults

Field Value
Statement A newly constructed descriptor defaults to: index the image (ImageIndexFlag="Y"), file it in the claim file (ImageFileCode="CLAIM"), one page (NPages=1), a 7-day document-date window (DocumentDateDays=7), medium task priority (TaskPriority="MED"), system-generated (SystemGeneratedFlag="Y"), and not policy-secured (PolicySecuredFlag="N").
Trigger Instance construction (property initializers)
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (property initializers in the class declaration)
Outcome Callers that set only claim/document identifiers still produce a valid, indexable claim-file import request*
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

BR-IMG-009 OnBase document type vocabulary

Field Value
Statement OnBase document types are restricted to the published constant vocabulary (CL - Indemnity, CL - Administrative, CL - FROI, CL - Worker) and sub-types to (Correspondence, 1502, SAIF created 801, WCD History); the OnBase16 token identifies the OnBase document-type vocabulary in use.
Trigger Caller assigns ImageDocumentTypeCode or category values
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (#Region "Constants") — advisory only; the class does not validate assigned values
Outcome Consistent OnBase classification across callers; a caller that bypasses the constants is not blocked*
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

BR-IMG-010 Wire format contract key set and order

Field Value
Statement The emitted key set, key spelling, and key order form the imaging/xPresso wire contract; every key in the fixed list is always present even when its value is blank.
Trigger ToString() serialization
Enforcement SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb (ToString method)
Outcome Downstream parsers can rely on a stable, fully populated key block*
Source SAIF.Services.Imaging.Import/clsImageImport.vb

Notes

  • The emitted key order is fixed and not alphabetical (e.g., SLevel is emitted after ReceivedDate); consumers and downstream imaging configuration must treat the order as part of the integration contract.*
  • The field set spans multiple domains (claim, policy, agency/group, legal, task) accreted over time rather than being modelled into sub-objects.*
  • No caller within this repository populates clsImageImport properties, so the concrete LegalMaintenance scenario that produces a legal-document import (LegalCaseId, LegalCaseNum, LegalCopyToClaimFlag, LegalDistributionFlag) is not observable here.**

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.
