Expanded Attributes for Returned Node Objects in Expressions

Returned node objects in expressions provide an expanded set of attributes to access more information about a hierarchy node in a particular context.  A returned Ancestor, List Item, Parent, or Sibling node object now includes the Locations and BoundLocations attributes.  A returned Location node object includes the Ancestors and Siblings attributes.  Ancestor, List Item, and Sibling node objects that are returned in an expression also include derived properties whereas previously they did not.  These additional attributes are available for any Enterprise Data Management expression used on a hierarchy viewpoint.

Business Benefit: Custom business logic defined for properties, validations, subscriptions, policies, comparisons, and extracts can utilize the additional attributes for improved functionality.
