RE: [election-services] Better data model - simple item - "Id"

["Paul Spencer" <paul.spencer@boynings.co.uk>]

Hi David,

 

The original intention was that Id exists as an element when it is an external Id such as an electoral roll number. It is used as an attribute when it is an internal system Id.

Team,

 

This might be an easy one to fix?  We appear to use "Id" as an attribute everywhere - but we have 4 different definitions for it.

 

In emlcore we could add a single type definition - and then reference that everywhere "Id" occurs.

 

A small step for EML...

 

Are there one or two other candidates?  I don't want to have too many of these to do at this point - but obvious ones that are highly used seem like worthwhile to fix at this point.

 

Thanks, DW
