Understanding Seeded Attributes and Standard Attributes

In Association Anywhere/Certelligence, standard attributes are pre-configured components that serve specific system functionalities. These attributes are designed to streamline integration with external systems, facilitate reporting, and automate certain system functions. This knowledge base article aims to provide an overview of seeded and available attributes, explaining their purpose and how they can be utilized within our system.

Seeded Attributes

Standard Attributes

What are Standard Attributes?

Once created, Standard Attributes have the connections in place for specific system functionality.  This may be automatic mapping to the Association Anywhere AHR view to enable integration with other systems and to facilitate reporting, or it may be programmatic system functions.

Available Standard Attributes

To reduce system clutter, however, these attributes do not exist by default in an out-of-the-box installation. If you choose to make use of them, simply create them according to the following details, and the AHR mappings and other functions will work automatically.
