Understanding Decision Details Concepts

The Engine contains these high-level concepts:

• Top-level screen

  A screen of decision details that is displayed when the user views a display category for a coverage period, showing a point-in-time view of the details of a case.

• Sub-screen

  A panel of details which is displayed when the user expands a row on a top-level screen (or parent sub-screen).

• Case Rule Class

  The rule class configured by a product period on a display category, responsible for identifying all the data to be made available for display.

• Display attribute

  A rule attribute annotated with the Display annotation, indicating that its data should be made available in decision details XML;

• DisplaySubscreen attribute

  A rule attribute on a Case Rule Class annotated with the DisplaySubscreen annotation, indicating that it returns a list of rule objects which can be queried for display on an expanded sub-screen.

• businessObjectID

  A unique numerical identifier for data displayed when a row of data is expanded to show a sub-screen.
