Key Functionalities
The Property Service provides multiple functionalities starting from serving as a central repository where property information is registered for reference of citizens and other municipality-provided services such as water connection and sewerage management.
An assessment can be done to calculate and pay tax on the property. The different services provided by the property services are -
Property Registry
Assessment
Mutation
Bifurcation
Consolidation
Registry Explanation
The registry flow helps the citizen/Employee to create a property in the system with the minimal information required.
Other workflows such as assessment or mutation can be triggered on the existing ACTIVE Property in the registry.
The property can be created, updated, cancelled, and searched followed by the process of Mutation and Assessment.
The same entry in the registry can be referred to by other modules for various business purposes (Water charges).
The persister file configuration for property services can be found in the Config repo of eGov Git, which needs to be added in the persister service - property-services-registry.yml
Workflow Configurations
Each flow in the property has a workflow associated with it, which can be controlled by following configurations.
The Boolean field can enable/disable Workflow - the same field controls the update and creates the workflow.
name
value
description
is.workflow.enabled
true/false
enable disbale workflow
PT.CREATE
the name should match the config name in the workflow businessservice JSON
PT.LEGACY
PT.UPDATE
Workflow configuration for a property is created if the source is from the WATER CONNECTION module.
For the creation of property from the water and sewerage module, as per the use case mentioned in this ticket, a different workflow configuration is used.
For each use case, to identify which workflow to use can be identified from this mdms file.
Use Case 1, which involves property creation from the Water and Sewerage module, necessitates a single-step workflow. In the MDMS file mentioned above, ensure that the businessService with PT.CREATEWITHWNS object is enabled, allowing the field to be set as true. Property creation from the Water and Sewerage module will feature a one-step workflow, for properties in an ACTIVE state.
Fields in the above MDMS file:
MDMS Fields
Description
businessService
Name of workflow config
initialAction
Indicate the start(initial) action of the particular workflow mention in businessService.
inWorkflowStatusAllowed
This field indicate whether the property with application status as “inWorkflow” can be use with water and sewerage connection creation.
If this field is true then for that particular use case, the property with “inWorkflow” status can be use with water and sewerage connection creation and vice versa
enable
If this filed is set as true, then the other fields associate with the particular object is use for property creation.
Note: Each object mentioned above represents a specific use case outlined in this ticket. Therefore, only one object (use case) enable field should be set to true at any given time.
Sample workflow config for use case 1 where property creation is from water and sewerage module with one-step workflow
