NOTE The template has been defined in the context of UK_Defence. Refer to the business context for details of related templates.

NOTE An explanation of a template and the associated instantiation path is provided in the Template overview section.

This information object represents the allocation of a resource to an activity.

Figure 1 — Graphical Representation for Business Object Resource Allocation

Attribute name	Attribute description	Attribute type	Optionality
Allocated quantity	This is the quantity of the resource that is allocated to the activity.	Intrinsic	Mandatory
Allocated resource	This is the reference to the resource that is allocated to the activity.	SELECT	Mandatory
Allocated time	This is the time for which the resource is allocated to the activity.	Intrinsic	Optional
Allocated to	This is the reference to the activity to which the resource is allocated.	Activity	Mandatory
ID	This attribute provides the identification of the Resource Allocation.	Identifier	Mandatory
Identifier.id	This is the value of the id attribute of the Identifier applied to the Resource Allocation.	intrinsic	Mandatory
Identifier.type	This attribute is the type associated with the id of the Identifier given to the Resource Allocation. This must be one of the classes provided.	Resource_item_identification_code	Mandatory
Identifier.source_organization	This attribute is the value representing the source organization that provides the id of the Identifier given to the Resource Allocation. This value is assumed to be a type of Organization_identification_code.	Organization_identification_code	Mandatory
Related demand	This is the reference to the resource demand against which the allocation may be made.	Relationship to Resource demand	Optional

Allow the Resource_as_realized_assignment entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Resource_as_realized_assignment entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $resource_allocation.res_as_real_asg%

where target is the parameter to which the Resource_as_realized_assignment is bound.

Allow the Resource_as_realized_resource_item entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Resource_as_realized_resource_item entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $resource_allocation.res_as_real%

where target is the parameter to which the Resource_as_realized_resource_item is bound.

The following characterizations may apply:

Characterization Applicability date

NOTE this characterization is optional.

A UK_Defence.resource_allocation may have effectivities assigned to it, such as an actual or planned effectivity, through the use of the following templates (or those based upon these): assigning_dated_effectivity. The following template calls show how these characterizations might be instantiated.

/assigning_dated_effectivity(start_year='2007', start_month='09', start_day='22', start_hour='09', start_minute='00', start_second='00', start_sense='exact', start_hour_offset='0', role_class_name='Actual_effectivity', role_ecl_id='urn:plcs:rdl:uk_defence', items='@@@@')/

Characterization Status Assignment

NOTE this characterization is optional.

A UK_Defence.resource_allocation may have one or more status assigned to it, through the use of the following templates (or those based upon these): UK_Defence.status_assignment. The following template calls show how these characterizations might be instantiated.

/status_assignment(assigned_status='', assigned_status_ecl_id='', ID='', ID_type='', ID_organization='', subject='', type='', type_ecl_id='')/

Characterization Document Association

NOTE this characterization is optional.

A UK_Defence.resource_allocation may have specific documents assigned to it, through the use of the following templates (or those based upon these): UK_Defence.document_association , and the associated UK_Defence.document. The following template calls show how these characterizations might be instantiated.

/document_association(id='', type='', source_organization='', purpose='', related_document='', related_item='')/
