Querying for Persistent User Profile Attributes

When you query for persistent user profile attributes in the Personalization Profile business component, it is important to use the Org. prefix organization-related fields. The following process occurs:

NOTE:  A similar process occurs when persistent user profile attributes are saved, for example when exiting the application.

• Position the business component to the record corresponding to the person whose attributes are being read.
• Read all person-related fields.
• Use either the Primary Account Id Internal or Primary Division Id Internal field (whichever is not empty) as an Id field to query for the organization-related fields.

  NOTE:  If both the Primary Account Id Internal and Primary Division Id Internal fields are populated, then the Org.* fields are based on the Primary Account Id Internal.

  Because both person and organization records are stored in the S_PARTY table and its extensions, you can use the same business component to query for these fields.

• Read all fields with names Org.*.
