Add Mandatory Parent

This button adds a new Mandatory Parent Relationship to a Dynamic Evidence Type Version Model definition, creates a shape in the Model Canvas representing the new Relationship, selects the Relationship, and opens up the Mandatory Parent Properties Panel. The Dynamic Evidence Type Version then, in essence, becomes a Child Evidence Type of the Parent Evidence Type.

Dynamic Evidence Type Versions can have multiple Mandatory Parent Relationships. Create pages for Evidence Types that define Mandatory Parents will be wizard based. Each Mandatory Parent will result in a new wizard page containing a selection list for that parent on the Case Evidence create page. The case workers will have to select one record as the parent record from each wizard page list (i.e. It is 'mandatory' to select a parent record for each Mandatory Parent type).

It is not valid to have multiple Mandatory Parent Relationships to the same Dynamic Evidence Type for the same Dynamic Evidence Type Version, and the Evidence Editor will enforce this restriction.

The following properties can be set in respect of a Mandatory Parent Relationship:

Table 1. Mandatory Parent Properties
Property name	Description
Relationship Name	This property sets the Model Relationship Name for the selected Mandatory Parent Relationship. The value of this property is treated as the internal identifier for the relationship and must be unique across all Relationships in the Dynamic Evidence Type Version.The Relationship Name is never used in the generation of screens for Case Evidence pages, and so the case worker will never see its value. They are however used in the generation of CER Data and Processing Rule Sets for this Dynamic Evidence Type Version - see Eligibility and Entitlement Rule Sets for more details. Relationship Names must follow a specific naming format: They must start with a lowercase English alphabetic character They can only contain lowercase or uppercase English alphabetic characters, numeric characters and underscores They must not contain any reserved words such 'relatedEmployment' or 'comments' as these are reserved identifier in the Dynamic Evidence Editor.
Parent Type Code	This property setting specifies the Evidence Type Code for the Mandatory Parent. At runtime, the case worker must select one instance of a Case Evidence record for the Parent Type Code during the creation of the child Case Evidence record.
Description	This property configures a non-localizable Model description value for the selected Mandatory Parent Relationship. This is for annotative purposes only, and is never displayed to the case worker at runtime.
