assigning_organization

NOTE An explanation of a template and the associated instantiation path is provided in the Template overview section.

Allow the Organization entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Organization entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $assigning_organization.organization%

where target is the parameter to which the Organization is bound.

Allow the Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $assigning_organization.organization_assgn%

where target is the parameter to which the Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment is bound.

Unique constraint: Organization identifier

There shall be at most one instance of the entity (Organization) within the data set uniquely identified by a combination of the following parameters on this template (assigning_organization) namely: org_id, org_id_class_name, org_id_ecl_id.
The instance is referenced by the following template parameter: organization.

-- Instantiate representing_organization
-- NOTE - representing_organization should only be instantiated once for
-- each organization
/representing_organization(
    org_id=@org_id,
    org_id_ecl_id=@org_id_ecl_id,
    org_id_class_name=@org_id_class_name)/

-- Bind Organization instantiated by the representing_organization
-- template to the ^organization parameter.
-- The parameter is a reference parameter so that the Organization
-- entity can be referred to when this template is used.
%^organization = $representing_organization.org%

-- Instantiate an Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment
Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment

-- Bind the Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment
-- to the parameter ^organization_assgn
-- The parameter is a reference parameter so the
-- Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment entity can be
-- referred to when this template is used.
%^organization_assgn = Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment%

-- Set the Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment
-- role attribute to be ignored
Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment.role = '/IGNORE'

-- Assign the organization to the
-- Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment
Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment.assigned_entity -> ^organization

-- classify the Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment
/assigning_reference_data(
    items=^organization_assgn,
    class_name=@org_assgn_class_name,
    ecl_id=@org_assgn_ecl_id)/

-- Assign the Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment.items
-- to the instances passed into the template through the @items
-- input parameter
Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment.items -> @items

The instance diagram in Figure shows an example of the EXPRESS entities and templates that are instantiated by the template:

@17 /assigning_organization(items='#16', org_id='Bike Hire Limited', org_id_class_name='Organization_name', org_id_ecl_id='urn:plcs:rdl:std', org_assgn_class_name='Owner_of', org_assgn_ecl_id='urn:plcs:rdl:std')/

(an illustration of the consolidated assigning_organization template is shown in Figure below.)

The instance diagram in Figure shows the graphic symbol for the template that is to be used in other instance diagrams. The example template is:

The following characterizations may apply:

Characterization Identification of an Organization

NOTE this characterization is optional.

Multiple identifications can be assigned to an organization.

Characterization Classification of an Organization

NOTE this characterization is optional.

An organization can be classified by assigning reference data to the Organization entity representing it.

For example, the 'BikeHire Limited' organization can be classified as an 'Bike operator'.

The assignment of reference data is described in the capability C010: assigning_reference_data (NB Capabilities are not documented in this release of the PLCS standard) .

Characterization Assigning time

NOTE this characterization is optional.

Dates and times may be associated with the assignment of an organization by using the template assigning_time. For example, the date on which an organization took ownership of a realized product, and the date at which the organization relinquished ownership is represented by assigning a time to the Organization_or_person_in_organization_assignment.
