Interface ExternalIdentifier

All Superinterfaces:
ExtensibleObject, RegistryObject

public interface ExternalIdentifier
extends RegistryObject

ExternalIdentifier instances provide the additional identifier information to RegistryObjects such as DUNS number, Social Security Number, or an alias name of the organization. The attribute name inherited from RegistryObject is used to contain the identification scheme ("DUNS" "Social Security Number", etc.), and the attribute value contains the actual information (e.g. the actual DUNS number). Each RegistryObject may have 0 or more ExternalIdentifiers.
