3.1.3 Allocated Resource ID

An Allocated Resource ID is an identifier assigned by the data generator which cost is being allocated to in a Data Generator-Calculated Split Cost Allocation. The Allocated Resource ID is used to understand what the cost is being allocated to in charges where the data generator is allocating costs to something other than the charge's ResourceID, as is the case for allocated charges.

AllocatedResourceId MUST adhere to the following requirements:

• AllocatedResourceId MUST be of type String.
• AllocatedResourceId MUST conform to StringHandling requirements.
• AllocatedResourceId MUST adhere to the following nullability requirements:
  • AllocatedResourceId MUST be null when a charge is not related to a data generator-calculated split cost allocation.
  • AllocatedResourceId MUST be null when a charge represents the unallocated portion of the origin charge after split cost allocation.
  • AllocatedResourceId MUST NOT be null when a charge represents the allocated portion of the origin charge.
• When AllocatedResourceId is not null, AllocatedResourceId MUST adhere to the following requirements:
  • AllocatedResourceId SHOULD be a locally unique identifier within the associated ResourceId and ChargePeriod.
  • AllocatedResourceId MAY NOT be unique across ResourceId or ChargePeriod values.

The identifier of the object to which cost is allocated in data generator-calculated split cost allocation.
