Overview

The proposed developer surface organizes employee, expense and accounting information around an organization boundary. Start by identifying which records a future application needs, rather than requesting access to every financial workflow.

Key concepts

Separate reading a record from authorizing a business decision. An expense resource, an approval decision and a reimbursement are different objects with different owners.

Implementation considerations

Document the organization owner, minimum data requirements and intended retention before designing a client. None of the illustrated services is available today.

Illustrative data model

This local fixture shows a possible representation for the concepts above. It is not an endpoint response, production configuration or a claim that the described capability is implemented.

Design review checklist

  • Document which organization owns the introduction to remizen apis representation and which actor may view or change it.
  • Test the boundaries of organization id, resource type, scope using synthetic values, including missing or inconsistent references.
  • Before future implementation, obtain an approved contract and review failure behavior. This documentation does not authorize production activation.
