Introduction
The sample project shows how to implement residency permit eligibility regulations and determine the permit eligibility.
Scenario
In this example, we determine the residency permit eligibility using the following rule.
- An applicant is eligible for a resident permit if the applicant has lived at an address while married and in that time period, they have shared the same address at least 7 of the last 10 years.
A sample input data for this scenario will be as follows:
A list of periods living at an address for applicant (From, To, Address):
2010-01-01,2015-12-31,”123 Main St, Anytown, USA”
2016-01-01,2020-12-31,”456 Oak St, Anytown, USA”
2021-01-01,2023-03-04,”789 Elm St, Anytown, USA”
A list of periods living at an address for spouse (From, To, Address):
2010-01-01,2015-12-31,”123 Main St, Anytown, USA”
2016-01-01,2020-12-31,”120 Maple St, Anytown, USA”
2021-01-01,2023-03-04,”789 Elm St, Anytown, USA”
A list of applicant and spouse marriage periods (From, To):
2010-01-01,2015-12-31
2021-01-01,2023-03-04
Running the Sample
- Open the file MainFlow.xml
- Click on the Logic Run template.
- Click on the given run template.
- Debug the sample by clicking on the debug button in the Logic Run Template window.
- You can click the ‘Next Step’ button to go step by step to follow the flow.
- Now you can see the output values in the ‘Parameters’ window.
Process Steps
The process contains the following steps to determine “Residency Permit Eligibility.”
- Check whether the couple has been married for at least 7 years with in last 10 years time.
- Adjust input data for 10 Years history
- Match Applicants’ addresses
- List of periods that Applicant and spouse living together
- Calculate Duration
- Determine Permit Eligibility
Project Description
The project contains the following documents.
- CalculateDuration.xml – Calculate the duration of married and lived together.
- DetermineEligibility.xml – Determines permit eligibility based on lived together duration and set a notification.
Business Glossaries
- Concept.xml – Allows reusing the input data throughout the model.
BoxedExpressions.xml – Allows define functions to use in the model.
Decision Graph
- DeterminePermitEligibility.xml – Determines the residency permit eligibility.
The Flow Design
Concept.xml
Fact Concept document is created to map the business concept along with data.
DeterminePermitEligibility.xml
Decision graph for determining permit eligibility.
- Adjust for 10 Years History – This decision call to the boxed expression function DateAdjustment(). What it does is, it adjust the input dates for last 10 years.
- Match Applicants – This expression join the applicant and spouse collection using their common addresses.
- List of Applicant and Spouse living together – This expression determine the common date period for applicant and spouse where they shared the same address.
- Calculate Duration – This decision table calculates the married and lived together duration by iterating married periods.
At the end of this decision table execution, a function calculates the total married and lived together duration.
- Determine Permit Eligibility – This decision table determines permit eligibility based on total married and lived together duration.
MainFlow.xml
Permit Eligibility decision graph was added into the flow.. If the married period is less than 7 years, the Permit Eligibility will be ineligible and notification is set. The decision graph only execute if the total married period is greater than or equal to 7 years along with those married period falls in between last 10 years. This condition is defined as a Boxed Expression.
Test Cases
Multiple test cases has been added to the project to cover various test case scenarios. You can run the test cases by click on “Run Tests” in the TestCase.xml
