clsMenuAuthorizedItem¶

clsMenuAuthorizedItem is a BOF business object representing a single projection record for an authorized menu item. It is populated by the UNION queries in clsMenuAuthorizedItemCollection and carries all display metadata needed by a presentation-layer consumer.

Purpose¶

Hold the result of the authorized-item UNION query (SQL-015 / SQL-016) for a single menu item row.
Surface fields such as MenuItemSeqNum, MenuUser, FavoriteFlag, UnsecuredFlag, page link, and toolbar flags to the consuming presentation layer.

Context¶

Namespace: SAIF.Business.Menu
Assembly/package: SAIF.BOF.Business.Menu

Behavioral notes¶

This class is read-only in practice; instances are populated by clsMenuAuthorizedItemCollection.AfterRetrieve and surfaced to callers.*
Authorization gating based on the UnsecuredFlag and MenuUser fields is the responsibility of the consuming presentation layer — see BR-MNU-01.

Constraints and usage notes¶

No direct SQL operations are issued from this class; all data is loaded by the parent collection.

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