Subject: [plcs-dex] Identification of properties



Hi

I was wondering whether we should use identification_assignment to identify
properties.

 

The justification being:

1)       We have tried to use identification_assignment rather than id
attributes consistently throughout.

2)       We use identification_assignment because that allows us to have
multiple identifiers on things. Question - does it makes sense to have
multiple identifiers on properties?

 

 

The reason for not using identification_assignment is that the PDM schema
does not. 

Is there really a business requirement to allow multiple identifiers on
properties?

Regards
Rob
