1.19 Minor Age Validation
Minor Age Validation through validation allows specific minor age criteria using rule framework. This configuration is critical in scenarios, where minor age is determined based on state level age limits for minors.
1. Check USE_MINOR_VAL_MODEL in the Properties Table:
- Step 1: The system first checks the value of USE_MINOR_VAL_MODEL in the properties table. This configuration is a boolean value, meaning it can either be TRUE or FALSE.
- Step 2: If USE_MINOR_VAL_MODEL is set to TRUE, it means that the system should use Validation Model to determine the minor age criteria.
For more information on validation model, refer to the Common Core User Guide.
Use “OBPYVMMINOR” as validation model code for configuring rules for minor age criteria based on states. The below is a sample rule to identify minor age based on states as “MS”, “AL, and “AE”.
if( ( STATE == MS ) && ( AGE < 21 ) ) elseif ( ( STATE IN [AL,NE] ) && ( AGE < 19 ) ) elseif ( ( STATE NOTIN [AL,NE,MS] ) && ( AGE < 18 ) )
output
Section1 True
Section2 True
Section3 True
2. Use MINOR_AGE_CRITERIA if
USE_MINOR_VAL_MODEL is False:
- Step 1: If USE_MINOR_VAL_MODEL is set as FALSE, the system will not use the validation model. Instead, it will refer to MINOR_AGE_CRITERIA in the properties table.
- Step 2: MINOR_AGE_CRITERIA defines the minor age criteria.
