ImageServices

ImageServices is a public class in SAIF.Business that exposes shared imaging-related service operations for claim access checks, IFN conversion, image lookup, reporting, and PDF-conversion error logging.

Purpose

  • Calls stored procedures and SQL queries used by imaging workflows to detect legal alerts, media attachments, and audit-report tracking data.
  • Bridges SAIF image identifiers to ImageInfo records and IFN/Vignette disk-set formats.
  • Applies imaging security rules for claim access and Active Directory resource access based on mail IDs and image file codes.
  • Records PDF conversion failures and retrieves alert-tracking results for imaging operations.

Context

  • Namespace: SAIF.Business
  • Assembly/package: SAIF.Business

Public members

Member Signature Purpose
AlertLegalonClaim Public Shared Function AlertLegalonClaim(ByVal inDataPortalInfo As IDataPortalInfo, ByVal inClaimId As Decimal) As Boolean Calls pk80001_LegalNet.AlertLegalCase and returns whether the claim should alert Legal.
ClaimHasMedia Public Shared Function ClaimHasMedia(ByVal inDataPortalInfo As IDataPortalInfo, ByVal inClaimId As Decimal) As Boolean Counts matching recording rows to determine whether a claim has media files.
GetNewImageSeqNum Public Shared Function GetNewImageSeqNum() As Decimal Reserves a new policy image ID through the external imaging API client.
GetImageInfo Public Shared Function GetImageInfo(inDPI As IDataPortalInfo, imageSeqNum As Decimal) As ImageInfo Returns the ImageInfo loaded for an image sequence number.
ConvertIFNDS Public Shared Function ConvertIFNDS(ByVal inIFNDS As String) As Decimal Converts a formatted IFN disk-set string such as 387/4 into the configured Vignette decimal value.
ConvertIFNDS Public Shared Function ConvertIFNDS(ByVal inIFNDS As Decimal) As String Converts a configured Vignette decimal disk-set value back into the formatted IFN disk-set string.
GetIFNDS Public Shared Function GetIFNDS(ByVal inEnv As String) As String Returns the IFN disk-set string associated with PROD or DEV.
setImageClaimAlertSecurity Public Shared Function setImageClaimAlertSecurity(ByVal inIsConflict As Boolean, ByVal inIsExposure As Boolean, ByVal inIsHealthIssue As Boolean, ByVal inIsSecure As Boolean) As String Chooses the imaging claim alert security code for secure or conflict claims.
FullIfndsIfnid Public Shared Function FullIfndsIfnid(ByVal ifnds As Decimal, ByVal ifnid As String) As String Formats an IFN disk-set and ID into IFN: <diskset>-<id> text.
HasAccessToClaim Public Shared Function HasAccessToClaim(ByVal inDataPortalInfo As IDataPortalInfo, ByVal inMailid As String, ByVal inClaimNum As String) As Boolean Evaluates whether the supplied mail ID can access the claim based on claim-security flags and cached security checks.
HasADAccessToImageResource Public Shared Function HasADAccessToImageResource(ByVal inImageFileCode As String, ByVal inMailid As String) As Boolean Validates whether a mail ID can access the image resource required for a specific image file code.
HasADAccessToImageResource Public Shared Function HasADAccessToImageResource(ByVal inMailid As String) As Boolean Validates whether a mail ID can access the general Image resource.
TrackInReport Public Shared Function TrackInReport(ByVal inDataPortalInfo As IDataPortalInfo, _ ByVal inPolicyNum As Decimal, _ ByVal inAuditPeriodStartDate As Date _ ) As String Calls pk73101_image.Track_In_Report and returns its return value for a policy and audit period.
WhoWasAlerted Public Shared Function WhoWasAlerted(ByVal inDataPortalInfo As IDataPortalInfo, _ ByVal inImageSeqNum As Decimal _ ) As String Calls pk73101_image.who_was_alerted and returns the alert-recipient text for an image.
LogPDFConversionError Public Shared Function LogPDFConversionError(ByVal inDataPortalInfo As IDataPortalInfo, _ ByVal inImageSeqNum As Decimal, _ ByVal inApplicationID As String, _ ByVal inErrorMsg As String _ ) As Boolean Inserts a row into PDF_CONVERSION_ERROR for a PDF conversion failure and reports whether the insert succeeded.

Behavioral notes

  • AlertLegalonClaim treats only an output flag of Y as True and wraps data-access failures in an ApplicationException prefixed with the legal-alert error message.
  • ClaimHasMedia returns True only when the media query count is at least one and wraps failures in an ApplicationException prefixed with the media-check error message.
  • GetNewImageSeqNum creates an ImagingClient from the imagingapiurl configuration setting and catches imaging API exceptions without rethrowing them.
  • setImageClaimAlertSecurity only changes the result for inIsSecure and inIsConflict; the inIsExposure and inIsHealthIssue parameters are not used by the implementation.
  • HasADAccessToImageResource hard-codes allowed group mail IDs for CLAIM, EAIP, and POLCY before falling back to clsAccountMaintProxy resource checks.

Constraints and usage notes

  • All members are Shared; callers do not create or maintain ImageServices state.
  • Data-access members require a valid IDataPortalInfo and the referenced stored procedures, tables, and views.
  • ConvertIFNDS and GetIFNDS return 0 or String.Empty for unsupported values rather than throwing their own validation exception.
  • HasAccessToClaim assumes the input claim number is already valid and does not implement the TODO exception path noted in the source.
