SAIF.Business.Policy overview

Documentation context: Packaged Component (NuGet)

SAIF.Business.Policy is the shared policy-domain business library for the Claims BOF component set. It defines interfaces that other libraries implement, centralizes policy-domain enums and code maps, performs a small set of direct Oracle lookups, and exposes a generated routing-institution dataset used alongside bank-validation workflows.

Purpose

• Define the policy-period, policy-header, policy-association, and adjusted-rate contracts consumed by higher-level libraries.
• Centralize policy-domain enum translation and code-table loading so callers use a consistent vocabulary.
• Provide direct Oracle-backed lookups for policy metadata, hazard groups, and minimum-premium calculations.

Responsibilities

• Maintain the reusable policy-domain contracts consumed outside this library.
• Translate persisted policy codes into domain enums and back again.
• Load effective-dated hazard-group reference data through the BOF data portal.
• Call Oracle procedures and scalar functions for minimum-premium and ownership decisions.

Key components

• PolicyInformation: application-layer façade for direct Oracle lookups and stored-procedure calls.
• clsHazardGroup / clsHazardGroupCollection: read-only BOF business-object model for hazard groups.
• Enums, CodeMaps, and clsTranslationResult: domain-code translation surface.
• Institutions: generated typed DataSet describing bank/routing reference data.*
