# SQL-172: LocationQueryProvider.GetPolcyClaimLocationWithDefault

This statement is a read operation invoked through ORM (NHibernate LINQ). Executed by `LocationQueryProvider.GetPolcyClaimLocationWithDefault`.

## Classification

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| **SQL ID** | SQL-172 |
| **Operation type** | Read |
| **Execution method** | ORM (NHibernate LINQ) |
| **Database** | Oracle* |
| **Schema** | [unqualified]** |
| **Command type** | N/A (ORM-generated) |
| **Business object** | `LocationQueryProvider` |
| **Criteria property** | N/A — ORM |
| **Lifecycle method** | `GetPolcyClaimLocationWithDefault` |

## Parameters

| Parameter | Direction | Type | Max length | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `policyNumber` | Input | long | N/A | Method argument of `LocationQueryProvider.GetPolcyClaimLocationWithDefault` bound into the ORM expression; NHibernate generates the bind variable at runtime |

## Tables

| Table | Access | Columns used |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [LOCATION](../database-tables.md#location) | SELECT | LOC_SEQ_NUM, POLICY_NUM, BUS_SEQ_NUM, AGENT_NUM, PARENT_LOC_SEQ_NUM, LOC_EFF_DATE, LOC_EXP_DATE, LOCATION_CODE, LOCATION_NAME, LOC_ADDR1, LOC_ADDR2, LOC_CITY, LOC_COUNTRY, LOC_PHONE, LOC_PHONE_EXT, LOC_FAX, LOC_STATE, LOC_ZIP, LOC_ZIP4, SIC_CODE, PROVIDER_NUM, CREATE_USER, CREATE_DATE, UPDATE_USER, UPDATE_DATE, USPS_BARCODE, EMAIL_ADDR, EMPLOYEE_COUNT, LOC_ADDR3, PRIMARY_LOCATION_FLAG, CELL_PHONE, LOC_COUNTY |

## LINQ statement

Source: `Data/SAIF.Data/Queries/Locations/LocationQueryProvider.cs:55-59`.

```csharp
public Location GetPolcyClaimLocationWithDefault(long policyNumber)
  {
      var claimLoc = Factory.GetRepository<Location>()
          .Query().OrderByDescending(o => o.EffectiveDate.Date)
          .FirstOrDefault(x => x.PolicyNum == policyNumber
                               && x.ExpirationDate == null && x.LocationCode == "CLM"
                               && (!x.ExpirationDate.HasValue || x.ExpirationDate < DateTime.Now.Date));

      if (claimLoc != null)
          return claimLoc;
      return GetPolicyMailingLocation(policyNumber);
  }
```

## Sample SQL

> **Inferred SQL:** This SQL was inferred from the LINQ statement above and the NHibernate mappings. It is not concrete SQL from source code; NHibernate generates the executed statement at runtime, so aliases, column order, join syntax, and bind-parameter names may differ.

```sql
-- Inferred from LINQ (NHibernate mapping translation); not concrete SQL
SELECT * FROM (
  SELECT
    L.LOC_SEQ_NUM,
    L.POLICY_NUM,
    L.BUS_SEQ_NUM,
    L.AGENT_NUM,
    L.PARENT_LOC_SEQ_NUM,
    L.LOC_EFF_DATE,
    L.LOC_EXP_DATE,
    L.LOCATION_CODE,
    L.LOCATION_NAME,
    L.LOC_ADDR1,
    L.LOC_ADDR2,
    L.LOC_CITY,
    L.LOC_COUNTRY,
    L.LOC_PHONE,
    L.LOC_PHONE_EXT,
    L.LOC_FAX,
    L.LOC_STATE,
    L.LOC_ZIP,
    L.LOC_ZIP4,
    L.SIC_CODE,
    L.PROVIDER_NUM,
    L.CREATE_USER,
    L.CREATE_DATE,
    L.UPDATE_USER,
    L.UPDATE_DATE,
    L.USPS_BARCODE,
    L.EMAIL_ADDR,
    L.EMPLOYEE_COUNT,
    L.LOC_ADDR3,
    L.PRIMARY_LOCATION_FLAG,
    L.CELL_PHONE,
    L.LOC_COUNTY
  FROM LOCATION L
  WHERE L.POLICY_NUM = :policyNumber
    AND L.LOC_EXP_DATE IS NULL
    AND L.LOCATION_CODE = 'CLM'
    AND (L.LOC_EXP_DATE IS NULL OR L.LOC_EXP_DATE < :nowDate)
  ORDER BY TRUNC(L.LOC_EFF_DATE) DESC
) WHERE ROWNUM <= 1
-- If no row: falls back to GetPolicyMailingLocation(policyNumber) — see SQL-170
```

Translation notes:
- `o.EffectiveDate.Date` → Oracle `TRUNC(L.LOC_EFF_DATE)` (the NHibernate Oracle dialect maps `DateTime.Date` to `trunc`).
- `DateTime.Now.Date` contains no lambda parameter, so NHibernate evaluates it client-side and binds it as `:nowDate`.
- `!x.ExpirationDate.HasValue` → `IS NULL`. The OR-group is redundant given the earlier `LOC_EXP_DATE IS NULL` but is kept as authored.
- A second statement may run (SQL-170) when the first returns nothing.
