About Attribute Values

Attribute values represent an instance of an attribute group's values, captured as part of an attribute data snapshot for a settlement item. An individual attribute values record is created for each unique combination of values that exists for the attributes defined in the attribute group.

Attribute values records are created when attribute data snapshots are created or updated for a settlement item.

Attribute values are defined by:

• Attribute Group: The attribute group that defines the attributes captured by the attribute values record
• Division: The division to which the settlement item captured by the attribute values record belongs
• Market: The market in which the settlement item captured by the attribute values record participants.
• Market Participant: The market participant associated with the settlement item captured by the attribute values record
• Rate Class : The rate class code for the settlement item captured by the attribute values record.
• Status: The status of the attribute values record
• Values: The specific values captured in the attribute values record, defined by the record’s attribute group
