Evidence Metadata, Product Evidence Link and Admin IC Evidence Link

Evidence metadata is maintained as part of the application's administration functionality. The evidence metadata entity provides configuration data about an evidence type. The configuration data includes the names of the application pages to be used for displaying and editing evidence. The following table describes each of the attributes in the evidence metadata entity:

Table 1. Attributes in the Evidence Metadata Entity
Attribute Description
Evidence Metadata ID Unique identifier of the evidence metadata record. This is the primary key used to identify the evidence metadata record in the system.
Evidence Type Type of evidence that the evidence metadata record relates to. This is a code table value and is used to identify the evidence to which the configuration data refers.
Effective From Date from which the configuration data applies to the evidence type. The system determines the correct evidence pages to use for an evidence type based on the effective from date of the evidence metadata record.
View Page Name Application page name to be used for displaying evidence of this type.
View Snapshot Page Name Application page name to be used for displaying evidence snapshot of this type. Evidence snapshot is available for participant evidence only.
Create Page Name Application page name to be used for creating evidence of this type.
Modify Page Name Application page name to be used for editing evidence of this type.
Business Object Page Name Application page name to be used for viewing evidence of this type from business object perspective.
Business Object Issues Page Name Application page name to be used for viewing business object issues for evidence of this type.
Business Object Verifications Page Name Application page name to be used for viewing business object verifications for evidence of this type.
History Record Page Name Application page name to be used for the history record for evidence of this type.
Workspace Page Name Application page name to be used to list evidence of this type.
Localized Description ID Unique identifier of the localized description record. This record contains localized description for evidence of this type.
Participant Data Indicator Indicator for participant data. This indicator is set if this evidence type pertains to participant data.
Participant Data Applies To All Indicator This indicator is relevant to participant evidence types only and it indicates whether this data is relevant for all case members or just the primary client.
Record Status Status of the evidence metadata record. This status is active unless the evidence metadata record has been deleted, in which case the status is canceled.

The product evidence link entity is used to link evidence metadata to products. By having a link entity between the evidence metadata and the product entities, the relationships between evidence types and products can be reciprocal; the product evidence link entity specifies the list of evidence types used by a product or conversely the list of products which use a particular evidence type. The following table describes each of the attributes in this entity:

Table 2. Attributes in the Product Evidence Link Entity
Attribute Description
Product Evidence Link ID Unique identifier of the product evidence link record. This is the primary key used to identify the product evidence link record in the system.
Product ID Identifier of the product record linked to the evidence metadata record.
Evidence Metadata ID Identifier of the evidence metadata record linked to the product record. This sets up a relationship between the evidence type recorded for the evidence metadata and the product.
Data Linked To Product Indicator Indicates if data is captured at the product level as opposed to the integrated case level.
Shareable Indicator Indicates if the evidence type can be shared by the product. If it is set to true, then this evidence type can be used in the Evidence Broker to configure sharing between case types.
Category The category code for the evidence in the context of this product.
Quick Link Indicator An indicator used to show if this evidence type will appear in the quick link list for adding evidence.
Sort Order The sort order for this evidence type. The sort order is an integer value used when ordering evidence types. If multiple types have the same sort order the alphabetic ordering of the type code will be used.

The Admin IC Evidence Link entity is used to link evidence metadata to integrated cases. By having a link entity between the evidence metadata and an integrated case, it's possible to find out what evidence is stored on the integrated case. The following table describes each of the attributes in this entity:

Table 3. Attributes in the Admin IC Evidence Link
Attribute Description
Admin IC Evidence Link ID Unique identifier of the Admin IC Evidence Link record. This is the primary key used to identify the Admin IC Evidence Link record in the system.
Evidence Metadata ID Identifier of the evidence metadata record linked to the admin integrated case record. This sets up a relationship between the evidence type recorded for the evidence metadata and the integrated case.
Admin Integrated Case ID Identifier of the admin integrated case record linked to the evidence metadata record.
Shareable Indicator Indicates if the evidence type can be shared by the integrated case. If it is set to true, then this evidence type can be used in the Evidence Broker to configure sharing between case types.
Category The category code for the evidence in the context of this integrated case.
Quick Link Indicator An indicator used to show if this evidence type will appear in the quick link list for adding evidence.
Sort Order The sort order for this evidence type. The sort order is an integer value used when ordering evidence types. If multiple types have the same sort order the alphabetic ordering of the type code will be used.
