Membership Element

The <Membership> element triggers the evaluation of class memberships for all participants in a Group Customer and related Group Customers or for a Policy's Primary Member client. This is applicable to a Group Customer level activity or Policy level activity. The following describes the general behavior:

  • If configured in a Group Customer level activity and a ClientGUID is provided, membership evaluation is limited to all participants of the Group Customer identified by the <ClientGUID> element.

  • If the <ClientGUID> element is not configured in a Group Customer level activity, membership evaluation is processed for all participants of the activity's Group Customer and all its related Group Customers.

  • If the element is configured in a Policy level activity, membership is evaluated for the Policy's Primary Member role and to all related Group Customers the member is associated with.

  • The results of membership may be persisted in the AsClassMembership table.

  • The results of membership will be displayed in a Membership tab in Activity Details.
