Document Type Definitions
- Barb Sutton (Deactivated)
The data dictionary contains lots of useful metadata about document types in maintenance document entries and transactional document entries. It also provides hooks to further financial and workflow related metadata (via the documentTypeName attribute). All types of information must be specified for every KFS document. The workflow document type defines how documents of the type are searched for and routed within workflow. The financial document type also provides information to KFS batch jobs about how to process the document within ledger operations. The data dictionary entry specifies authorizer, rule, and pre-rule classes, etc; basically it defines the OLTP behavior of the document itself. The MaintenanceDocumentDictionaryService, TransactionalDocumentDictionaryService, and DocumentTypeService may be used to access this metadata.
