Business concepts

I have now completed the changes to the business concepts.

Basically, a business concept must be defined within a context.

This has meant a fair amount of change to DEXlib XSL. If you find that anything does not work, please tell me.

Details on how to create a business concept are provided in the “Developing a Business concept” help pages. This also explains the new business concept directory structure. If this does not make sense, then let me know, or propose some changes.

I have also provided a section in the “Introduction” help pages that describes business concepts. Whilst I was at it, I “improved” the section describing reference data. See what you think.

If anyone has been developing business concepts, please contact me about migrating the old business concepts to the new.

I have deleted the existing business concept directories:

dexlib/data/busconcept/allowance_parts_list

dexlib/data/busconcept/bc_template

dexlib/data/busconcept/identify_a_part_and_its_constituent_parts

dexlib/data/busconcept/manufacturers_item

Let me know if these should e retained.

I have created one example context TLSS and defined a single business concept within it: “manufacturers_item”

Rob
