--- title: ClaimAdjuster summary: API reference for ClaimAdjuster. status: draft owner: SAIF Doc Gen last_reviewed: 2026-09-24 library: SAIF.Domain reference_type: package --- # ClaimAdjuster `ClaimAdjuster` implements `SAIF.Core.Contracts.Claims.Information.IAdjuster` and is the concrete adjuster representation `Claim.ResponsibleAdjuster`, `Claim.CompensableAdjuster`, and `Claim.VocationalAdjuster` build from Guidewire claim-contact data or vocational-responsibility data, filling in name/phone/fax either directly from Guidewire or, when Guidewire has no user ID, by falling back to an `Employee` lookup ([OP-DOM-18](../../operations-processes.md#op-dom-18), [OP-DOM-20](../../operations-processes.md#op-dom-20)). Its formatted display properties feed the adjuster information shown on claim and bill screens. ## Purpose - Holds an adjuster's identity, responsibility code, and contact detail (name, phone, fax) so `Claim`'s adjuster-related properties have a consistent value to return regardless of whether the data came from Guidewire or an `Employee` lookup. - Formats display strings — `NavigationDisplay`, `NavigationDisplayName`, `ResponsibilityCodeDisplay`, `ResponsibilityPhoneExtensionDisplay` — combining responsibility code, name, and phone extension into the exact strings claim/bill screens render. ## Context - Namespace: `SAIF.Domain.Model.Claims` - Assembly/package: `SAIF.Domain` (packaged in `SAIF.SAIFCode.Core`) ## Public members | Member | Signature | Purpose | | --- | --- | --- | | ClaimAdjuster (constructor) | `public ClaimAdjuster()` | Initializes `Name`, `Phone`, and `Fax` to empty value objects and `MailId`/`ResponsibilityCode`/`NavigationUrl` to empty strings, so an adjuster with no data still exposes non-null contact objects. | | ResponsibilityCode | `public string ResponsibilityCode { get; set; }` | The adjuster's responsibility-type code (e.g. compensable, vocational). | | MailId | `public string MailId { get; set; }` | The adjuster's Guidewire user ID, used to decide whether Guidewire contact data or an `Employee` lookup supplies name/phone/fax. | | Name | `public PersonName Name { get; set; }` | The adjuster's display name. | | Phone | `public PhoneNumber Phone { get; set; }` | The adjuster's phone number and extension. | | Fax | `public PhoneNumber Fax { get; set; }` | The adjuster's fax number. | | PhoneExtension | `public string PhoneExtension { get; set; }` | The adjuster's phone extension, used by `ResponsibilityPhoneExtensionDisplay`. | | NavigationUrl | `public string NavigationUrl { get; set; }` | The `mailto:`-style navigation link built for this adjuster (via `IAdjuster.FormatNavigationUrl` on the underlying contract implementation)*. | | NavigationDisplay | `public string NavigationDisplay { get; }` | The combined `" - x"` display string, omitting the code prefix or extension suffix when they are blank. | | NavigationDisplayName | `public string NavigationDisplayName { get; }` | The adjuster's name formatted with `FormatToEmployeeFormat()`. | | ResponsibilityCodeDisplay | `public string ResponsibilityCodeDisplay { get; }` | The responsibility code formatted as `" - "`, or empty when there is no code. | | ResponsibilityPhoneExtensionDisplay | `public string ResponsibilityPhoneExtensionDisplay { get; }` | The phone extension formatted as `"x"`, or empty when there is no extension. | ## Behavioral notes - `MailId` being blank is the signal `Claim`'s adjuster properties use to decide whether to fall back to an `Employee` lookup for name/phone/fax rather than using Guidewire contact data directly*. ## Constraints and usage notes - `NavigationUrl`, `FormatNavigationUrl`, and related interface members come from `IAdjuster`; this type's own file defines only the data and display-formatting members listed above. > **Note:** Statements marked with `*` were inferred from code structure, naming > conventions, or contextual evidence where direct confirmation was not available > in source artifacts. ## Sources - `Domain/SAIF.Domain/Model/Claims/ClaimAdjuster.cs` - `Domain/SAIF.Domain/Model/Claims/Claim.cs`
