RequestValidator

A FluentValidation AbstractValidator<Request> that enforces the required fields and context validity for a new or edited Collections case request, delegating policy/claim-number existence checks to ICollectionsService.ValidateContext.

Purpose

• Requires a collection type, case status, county, credit representative, judgment-years selection, and annual interest rate.
• Requires a valid policy number for policy-coded requests, or a valid claim number for non-policy-coded requests, verified via ICollectionsService.
• Requires the received date to fall between 01/01/1980 and seven days in the future.

Context

• Namespace: SAIF.Services.Collections.Validators
• Assembly/package: SAIF.Services (packaged inside the SAIF.SAIFCode.Core NuGet package)

Public members

Member	Signature	Purpose
RequestValidator(...)	public RequestValidator(ICollectionsService service)	Wires in the Collections service used for policy/claim context validation and registers all field-required and context-validity rules described above against a validated Request instance.

Behavioral notes

• IsValidPolicy skips policy-number validation entirely for collection codes that do not contain "POL", and otherwise requires a non-zero policy number that resolves via ICollectionsService.ValidateContext.
• IsValidClaim mirrors this logic in reverse: it skips claim-number validation for "POL"-coded requests and otherwise requires a non-null claim number that resolves via ICollectionsService.ValidateContext.
• Both context-validity checks discard the out message returned by ValidateContext, relying solely on its boolean result to drive the FluentValidation failure*.

Note: Statements marked with * were inferred from code structure, naming conventions, or contextual evidence where direct confirmation was not available in source artifacts. Statements marked with ** could not be confirmed; treat as unknown until verified.
