POSC Specifications: Epicentre Version 3.0 | Logical Data Model |
A named structure that defines the rules which validate a set of business associations. Each structure is used to define a set of rules between types of business associates, and to define the associations made using those rules. For example, the Democratic Party structure defines rules that say the national organization is composed of state organizations, and state organizations are composed of county organizations, and that counties are composed of precinct organizations. The business association that Harris County Democratic Party is composed of Democratic Party Precincts 4 and 5 is an association validated by this structure.

- The name or identifier of the code. Inherited from ref_code.
- description (O, I: ndt_comment) (C117)
- A remark or comment about the instance. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- effective_date (O: ndt_date)
- The date on which a business association structure became effective.
- expiry_date (O: ndt_date)
- The date at which the business association structure was no longer effective.

- This is the date that this instance was created. This date is defined by the source if imported, or is the date the instance is created if a new instance. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- instance_creator (O, I: ndt_identifier) (C126)
- This is the person, company or application that created this instance. This identifies the party responsible for loading this instance. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- last_updated (O, I: ndt_date_tod) (C126)
- This is the date that this instance was last updated. This value should be updated when any part of this instance is altered (except for inverse relationships). Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- last_updated_by (O, I: ndt_identifier) (C126)
- This records the person or application making the update to this instance. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- source (O, I: ndt_identifier) (C126)
- The provider of this instance, which is usually a data provider for imported/purchased data. If this instance is provided by POSC, then this attribute must be "POSC". Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- source_content (O, I: ndt_identifier) (C126)
- This is the original source of the data. This is the person, company or application that defined or specified the data (content) for this instance and is considered to be responsible for it. For example, POSC, EPSG, API, ISO, etc. This may be the same as or different from the provider of the instance (e.g., POSC). Inherited from ref_aliasable_data.
- source_reference (O, I: ndt_comment) (C042, C126)
- The reference used by source to provide the standard instance, such as Petroleum Industry Data Dictionary (PIDD), Websters Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, etc. Inherited from ref_aliasable_data.
- status (O, I: ndt_instance_status) (C042)
- The status of this instance in the version of Epicentre running in a data store. This is an enumerated datatype for which the following are the possible values: current, provisional, deprecated. Current - use without restriction. Provisional - use with caution, this value is for comment and may not appear in future releases of Epicentre. Deprecated - avoid use if possible, it is planned to remove this value in the next major release of Epicentre. Inherited from ref_aliasable_data.
- business_association (V: SET[0:?] business_association(ref_bus_assn_structure))
- These are the instances which utilize the semantics of this instance. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may be referenced by one or more business_association.
- code_alias (I, V: SET[0:?] code_alias(aliased_object)) (C029)
- Indicates the various identifiers by which this data is known. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may be known by one or more code_alias. Inherited from ref_aliasable_data.
- data_collection (I, V: SET[0:?] data_collection_content(collection_part)) (C020)
- Indicates the data collections that include this instance of E and P data. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may be a member of one or more data_collection_content. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- document_information_content (I, V: SET[0:?] document_information_content(e_and_p_data)) (C136)
- These are the document specification parts that include this data value and define its meaning within a document specification. Each use may define a different meaning, and many uses are allowed. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may be included in one or more document_information_content. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- graphical_element (I, V: SET[0:?] graphical_element(depicted_object))
- Specifies one or more graphical elements which are depicting this data item. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may be depicted by one or more graphical_element. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- naming_system (O, I: naming_system(ref_aliasable_data)) (C028)
- The naming system in which the identifier is specified and determined to be unique. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may have name specified by one naming_system. Inherited from ref_aliasable_data.
- ref_bus_assn_structure_rule (V: SET[0:?] ref_bus_assn_structure_rule(ref_bus_assn_structure))
- Defines the set of business association structure rules which describe this structure. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may be composed of one or more ref_bus_assn_structure_rule.
- ref_bus_assn_structure_type (O: ref_bus_assn_structure_type(ref_bus_assn_structure)) (C138)
- The kind of the business association structure. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may be a kind of one ref_bus_assn_structure_type.
- version (O, I: ref_version(ref_aliasable_data)) (C042, C126)
- This describes the version of this instance as defined by the provider. Each ref_bus_assn_structure may version one ref_version. Inherited from ref_aliasable_data.
