SAIF.Business.Payment overview

Documentation context: NuGet package (nuspec-referenced)

SAIF.Business.Payment is a component-tier BOF business library in the payment domain. It defines shared contracts (IBankAccount, iPaymentPreference) used by downstream payment-processing libraries and hosts the claim-payee-eligibility business object (clsEligPayeeClaim/clsEligPayeeClaimCollection). This is a contract-only library: despite the presence of IBusinessCriteria nested classes, no live SQL is executed; both business objects use in-memory BOF factory scaffolding.

Purpose

• Define the IBankAccount and iPaymentPreference contracts that describe the public shape of bank-account and payment-preference data, enabling implementing libraries (primarily SAIF.Business.Payment.EFT) to fulfill the contracts independently.*
• Model claim-level payee eligibility via clsEligPayeeClaim and clsEligPayeeClaimCollection.
• Distribute as a NuGet package consumed by downstream payment and claim libraries.

Responsibilities

• Declare the IBankAccount read-only interface (routing number, account number, account-type flags).
• Declare the iPaymentPreference interface and the PaymentPreferenceTypes enum (Check, DirectDeposit, DebitCard, UnSpecified).
• Provide clsEligPayeeClaim as the business object representing an eligible payee for a claim payment.
• Provide clsEligPayeeClaimCollection as the in-memory collection of eligible-payee records for a claim.

Key components

• clsEligPayeeClaim: BOF business object inheriting clsBusinessBase; models a single eligible-payee-for-claim record.
• clsEligPayeeClaimCollection: BOF collection inheriting clsBusinessCollectionBase; assembles an in-memory list of eligible payees for a given claim.
• IBankAccount: read-only contract interface describing a bank account's public shape.
• iPaymentPreference: contract interface describing a payee's preferred payment method.
• PaymentPreferenceTypes: enum providing payment-method type codes.
