Action Types

A standard Change method offers support for actionType qualifiers per component instance; this must not be modeled in the BID or BII. The use of actionType component qualifiers is also supported for PublishEvent and OnEvent. They cannot be used for standard methods other than Change, PublishEvent and OnEvent. For the standard Change method, only the following actionType component qualifier values are allowed: ‘create’, ‘change’, ‘delete’, ‘unchanged’ or ‘createOrChange’. The ‘createOrChange’ actionType is handled top-down, just like the ‘create’ and ‘change’ action types.

A specific method can have any actionType component qualifier; this will be handled just like any other qualifier attribute.
