- Transaction behavior
- Deleting a Party record includes the deletion of a Party's child objects and a Party's associated objects. There are 4 external rules that regulate the deleteParty transaction:
- Rule Id 89 – This external rule retrieves all party and child objects to validate and then delete them.
- Rule Id 90 – This external rule is invoked by each party and child object at the component level for delete validation. This rule has no business logic implementation by default.
- Rule Id 91 – This external rule retrieves all the party associations and checks for deletion rules around each of the party's association,s with respect to the party. After the checks, it invokes the component delete operation for the party association.
- Rule Id 92 – This external rule is invoked by
ContractPartyRole
at the component level, for delete validation. It contains the business delete rules for party role child objects. - When a Party is successfully deleted, in History a D, or delete, record is created.
