# AdreMa Capability Assessment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This document records a behavior-level assessment of the historical AdreMa
|
|
|
|
|
application supplied in `/mnt/DATA/tmp.tar`. The goal is not to reproduce its
|
|
|
|
|
implementation or UI. The goal is to preserve the useful administrative
|
|
|
|
|
capabilities while replacing hard-coded queries and output paths with
|
|
|
|
|
governed, reusable GovOPlaN contracts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The archive was inspected as untrusted historical material. No archived code
|
|
|
|
|
was executed. Generated documents and record-level output were excluded from
|
|
|
|
|
the analysis.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Evidence And Handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Archive SHA-256:
|
|
|
|
|
`328edbaf05df084f9c63cc3b9b36f7c5ae0c639942be4b7ad830efc0905a311b`
|
|
|
|
|
- Compressed size: about 1.49 GB
|
|
|
|
|
- Inventory: 8,966 files and 190 directories
|
|
|
|
|
- Uncompressed payload: about 1.79 GB
|
|
|
|
|
- The AdreMa selection UI contains 258 distinct segment variables, 265 query
|
|
|
|
|
cases, 13 sort definitions, seven action definitions, and 24
|
|
|
|
|
department-specific forms.
|
|
|
|
|
- The adjacent configurable list/report layer contains 47 ETI definitions.
|
|
|
|
|
- The wider print-server archive contains 127 SQL files, 181 XSLT files, and 82
|
|
|
|
|
Python workflow sources.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The archive contains generated person-level documents and embedded
|
|
|
|
|
credentials. It must not be committed, copied into test fixtures, or treated as
|
|
|
|
|
safe sample data. Any credential that could still be valid must be rotated.
|
|
|
|
|
Future fixtures derived from this assessment must be synthetic.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What AdreMa Actually Is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AdreMa is not primarily a master address database. It is a role-specific
|
|
|
|
|
audience selection and output application over authoritative institutional
|
|
|
|
|
databases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Its main flow is:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Authenticate against a directory.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Show a menu of saved recipient selections permitted for the current user or
|
|
|
|
|
department.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Run a fixed SQL selection against organization, person, employment,
|
|
|
|
|
function, student, geography, and address data.
|
|
|
|
|
4. Apply a selected sort order and address variant.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Produce a table, spreadsheet, label preview, label file, central print job,
|
|
|
|
|
or BCC mail draft.
|
|
|
|
|
6. Record a basic process log and recipient count.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The broader print-server application adds SQL-to-XML extraction, XSLT
|
|
|
|
|
transformation, HTML/Excel output, TeX/PDF generation, batch letters, PDF
|
|
|
|
|
protection, printer selection, and direct print-queue submission.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This means an AdreMa replacement should not be one large Addresses feature.
|
|
|
|
|
It is a vertical composition of Addresses, Organizations/IDM, Datasources,
|
|
|
|
|
Connectors, Dataflow, Distribution Lists, Templates, Campaign, Files, Audit,
|
|
|
|
|
Policy, Reporting, Workflow, and a future print-delivery capability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Observed Functional Model
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Sources And Identities
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The application reads live authoritative data rather than maintaining a
|
|
|
|
|
separate copy. Its selections use:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- people and institutional units
|
|
|
|
|
- functions and role assignments
|
|
|
|
|
- employment and student state
|
|
|
|
|
- effective dates and exclusions
|
|
|
|
|
- internal and external organizations
|
|
|
|
|
- geography, country, and postal-code ranges
|
|
|
|
|
- source-specific person, registration, and unit identifiers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Access to selections is hard-coded by user and department. Administrative
|
|
|
|
|
users receive the union of those menus.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Contact And Address Semantics
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Observed recipient fields include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- display name, given name, family name, title, and formal salutation
|
|
|
|
|
- organization/unit and function context
|
|
|
|
|
- phone, fax, email, and URL
|
|
|
|
|
- `care of`/`for the attention of` lines
|
|
|
|
|
- street, postal code, locality, country, and internal mail routing
|
|
|
|
|
- person, registration, and organizational-unit identifiers
|
|
|
|
|
- address purpose variants such as private, semester, home, business, service,
|
|
|
|
|
and correspondence address
|
|
|
|
|
- effective employment or membership data used to decide eligibility
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The legacy system also allows a requested number of labels for an individual
|
|
|
|
|
recipient. That quantity belongs to an output job, not to the canonical address
|
|
|
|
|
record.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Recipient Selection
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Selections cover several distinct patterns:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- static categories of institutional units
|
|
|
|
|
- people assigned to a function or organizational level
|
|
|
|
|
- current-state selections with effective-date rules and exclusions
|
|
|
|
|
- geographic and demographic selections
|
|
|
|
|
- combinations and unions of predefined audiences
|
|
|
|
|
- explicit person or unit lookup by source identifier
|
|
|
|
|
- department-specific variants of a shared audience
|
|
|
|
|
- user-selected additional predicates and sort orders in the adjacent ETI
|
|
|
|
|
report layer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The important reusable abstraction is therefore a versioned, parameterized,
|
|
|
|
|
permissioned segment definition. The 265 query branches must not become 265
|
|
|
|
|
new backend endpoints.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Output
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The directly observed output modes are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- on-screen recipient table with contact and postal fields
|
|
|
|
|
- spreadsheet export
|
|
|
|
|
- plain-text label preview
|
|
|
|
|
- generated label file
|
|
|
|
|
- emailed label file
|
|
|
|
|
- central label printing
|
|
|
|
|
- BCC mail draft
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The adjacent print-server flows additionally produce:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- formatted lists and grouped reports
|
|
|
|
|
- personalized letters and notices
|
|
|
|
|
- HTML, spreadsheet-compatible, TeX, PostScript, and PDF artifacts
|
|
|
|
|
- printer-specific layouts and direct print jobs
|
|
|
|
|
- password-protected output and combined document bundles
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ETI layer is an early configuration-driven report system. A definition can
|
|
|
|
|
declare:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- a SQL source
|
|
|
|
|
- named optional filter predicates
|
|
|
|
|
- named sort orders
|
|
|
|
|
- list and label layouts
|
|
|
|
|
- page, line, margin, repetition, and format settings
|
|
|
|
|
- screen or spreadsheet output
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
That is conceptually close to a GovOPlaN combination of a Dataflow template,
|
|
|
|
|
typed output template, and Report/Campaign run configuration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Legacy Limitations We Should Not Reproduce
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- users, departments, permissions, query variants, and output paths are
|
|
|
|
|
hard-coded
|
|
|
|
|
- credentials are embedded in source files
|
|
|
|
|
- request values are interpolated into SQL and shell commands
|
|
|
|
|
- authentication, authorization, session transfer, and application routing are
|
|
|
|
|
coupled
|
|
|
|
|
- selection names do not carry version, owner, purpose, legal basis, or
|
|
|
|
|
provenance
|
|
|
|
|
- past output cannot be reproduced reliably after source data or query code
|
|
|
|
|
changes
|
|
|
|
|
- exclusions and exceptional recipients are hidden inside SQL
|
|
|
|
|
- there is no first-class consent, suppression, address-quality, or duplicate
|
|
|
|
|
resolution model
|
|
|
|
|
- mail generation relies on client-side `mailto` BCC links
|
|
|
|
|
- print operations have weak status, retry, cancellation, and evidence
|
|
|
|
|
handling
|
|
|
|
|
- temporary files and generated artifacts are not governed records
|
|
|
|
|
- the UI does not explain why a recipient was included, excluded, or
|
|
|
|
|
inaccessible
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

## Target Architecture
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 1. Canonical Parties And Contact Points
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Addresses should model locally managed parties while linking, rather than
|
|
|
|
|
duplicating, authoritative IDM and Organizations records.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Required additions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- party kind: person, organization, household, group, or location
|
|
|
|
|
- formal and display-name components, locale, title, and salutation
|
|
|
|
|
- optional stable references to identity, organization, unit, and function
|
|
|
|
|
providers
|
|
|
|
|
- typed relationships such as member, employee, office holder, household
|
|
|
|
|
member, assistant, or care-of contact
|
|
|
|
|
- effective dates and provenance on relationships and contact points
|
|
|
|
|
- postal fields for care-of/addressee lines, PO boxes, country codes, internal
|
|
|
|
|
mail routes, and delivery instructions
|
|
|
|
|
- purpose and preference metadata for private, business, service,
|
|
|
|
|
correspondence, billing, and other address uses
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The model must remain usable when IDM or Organizations is absent. Optional
|
|
|
|
|
provider links enrich a local party; they do not make those modules hard
|
|
|
|
|
dependencies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 2. Governed Segments
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Addresses owns the address-domain segment definition and user experience.
|
|
|
|
|
Dataflow evaluates complex tabular predicates, while Datasources and Connectors
|
|
|
|
|
provide governed inputs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A segment needs:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- immutable definition revisions
|
|
|
|
|
- system, tenant, group, and user scope
|
|
|
|
|
- complete-flow versus reusable-template semantics
|
|
|
|
|
- parameters with types, defaults, constraints, and permitted overrides
|
|
|
|
|
- explicit include, exclude, and manual-override sets
|
|
|
|
|
- source fingerprints and freshness requirements
|
|
|
|
|
- preview, count, sample, and "why included/excluded" diagnostics
|
|
|
|
|
- schedule/event refresh policy where materialization is wanted
|
|
|
|
|
- owner, purpose, legal basis, retention, and policy provenance
|
|
|
|
|
- materialized/frozen recipient snapshots for reproducible use
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Simple tag/contact filters can execute in Addresses. Cross-source joins and
|
|
|
|
|
complex expressions should compile to a Dataflow revision rather than creating
|
|
|
|
|
a second query engine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 3. Recipient Resolution
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The current recipient-source DTO is email-oriented. AdreMa parity needs a
|
|
|
|
|
versioned channel-neutral contract that can resolve:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- email targets
|
|
|
|
|
- postal targets
|
|
|
|
|
- internal-mail targets
|
|
|
|
|
- postbox targets where Postbox is installed
|
|
|
|
|
- unresolved or blocked targets with stable reason codes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Resolution must consider:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- requested channel and communication purpose
|
|
|
|
|
- effective date
|
|
|
|
|
- preferred address/contact point
|
|
|
|
|
- explicit address-purpose selection and fallback rules
|
|
|
|
|
- locale and international postal formatting
|
|
|
|
|
- consent, legal basis, suppression, and policy decisions
|
|
|
|
|
- duplicate targets and household/organization grouping
|
|
|
|
|
- source revision, selected contact-point ID, and complete provenance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Consumers freeze the resolution result. They never retain only a live pointer
|
|
|
|
|
to an address list or segment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4. Static And Operational Lists
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The existing split remains correct:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Addresses owns address-only lists and address-domain segments.
|
|
|
|
|
- Distribution Lists owns mixed operational `Verteiler` containing address
|
|
|
|
|
records, identities, users, groups, organization units, functions, roles,
|
|
|
|
|
raw targets, and nested distribution lists.
|
|
|
|
|
- Workflow/Tasks owns an `Umlauf` with ordering, state, deadlines, escalation,
|
|
|
|
|
and decisions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Distribution-list entries need stable IDs. A consumer stores an immutable
|
|
|
|
|
expansion snapshot. Consumer-specific enrichment belongs to that consumer;
|
|
|
|
|
reusable derived lists are separate, revision-pinned definitions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 5. Templates, Artifacts, And Delivery
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Templates should provide typed render contracts for:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- labels and label sheets
|
|
|
|
|
- envelopes
|
|
|
|
|
- form and serial letters
|
|
|
|
|
- email and postbox messages
|
|
|
|
|
- list/report layouts
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Templates declare required fields and output capabilities. Rendering produces a
|
|
|
|
|
managed Files artifact with template revision, input snapshot hash, renderer
|
|
|
|
|
version, page/count summary, and diagnostics.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Campaign should orchestrate postal batches in the same way it orchestrates
|
|
|
|
|
mail: freeze recipients, validate required fields, review exceptions, render,
|
|
|
|
|
approve, deliver or export, reconcile outcomes, and retain evidence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Direct physical printing deserves a dedicated domain boundary once implemented:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Print owns printers, queues, jobs, status, cancellation, retry, accounting,
|
|
|
|
|
secure release, and job evidence.
|
|
|
|
|
- Connectors supplies IPP/CUPS, Windows print-server, or provider-specific
|
|
|
|
|
connection profiles.
|
|
|
|
|
- Campaign, Templates, Files, and Workflow consume a versioned print capability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Downloading a generated PDF is a valid deployment without Print installed.
|
|
|
|
|
Matching AdreMa's direct central-print behavior requires Print.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 6. Governance And Quality
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parity is not sufficient without:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- purpose- and channel-specific consent/legal-basis records
|
|
|
|
|
- do-not-contact and returned/invalid-address suppression
|
|
|
|
|
- normalization and validation with original-value preservation
|
|
|
|
|
- duplicate candidates, survivorship rules, manual merge/split, and undo
|
|
|
|
|
evidence
|
|
|
|
|
- field-level provenance and source-of-truth precedence
|
|
|
|
|
- stale-source and stale-segment warnings
|
|
|
|
|
- field/row/export policy decisions with user-readable explanations
|
|
|
|
|
- complete audit events for read, export, resolution, merge, rendering, and
|
|
|
|
|
delivery
|
|
|
|
|
- retention, legal hold, and deletion behavior for source records and frozen
|
|
|
|
|
output evidence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 7. Guided User Experience
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default journey should be:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Choose or create an address list/segment.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Preview the authorized audience and inspect included, excluded, duplicate,
|
|
|
|
|
invalid, and suppressed counts.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Select channel, address purpose/fallback, sort, and grouping.
|
|
|
|
|
4. Freeze a recipient snapshot.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Select a compatible template/output format.
|
|
|
|
|
6. Review individual exceptions and approve the run.
|
|
|
|
|
7. export, send, or print through available capabilities.
|
|
|
|
|
8. inspect progress, outcomes, returned items, and evidence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Workflow may package this as a reusable guided process and activate a focused
|
|
|
|
|
View. Every underlying resource must remain independently accessible and
|
|
|
|
|
permission-checked.

|
|

|
## Representative Golden Flow
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before migrating any historical selection, build a synthetic AdreMa fixture
|
|
|
|
|
covering:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- people, organizations, units, functions, and effective-dated assignments
|
|
|
|
|
- multiple postal-purpose variants and internal mail
|
|
|
|
|
- a function-based segment
|
|
|
|
|
- an organization-unit segment
|
|
|
|
|
- a geography-based segment
|
|
|
|
|
- a union of segments
|
|
|
|
|
- explicit inclusion and exclusion
|
|
|
|
|
- duplicate and suppressed recipients
|
|
|
|
|
- deterministic sorting and address fallback
|
|
|
|
|
- frozen postal and email snapshots
|
|
|
|
|
- label, spreadsheet, and letter output expectations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The fixture should assert exact recipient IDs, selected contact-point IDs,
|
|
|
|
|
ordering, exclusion reasons, source fingerprints, and output hashes. It must
|
|
|
|
|
contain no archived record-level data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Migration Strategy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Do not translate the legacy source one query branch at a time into application
|
|
|
|
|
code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Inventory each still-relevant named selection with owner, purpose, legal
|
|
|
|
|
basis, source systems, parameters, output type, and expected use frequency.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Retire obsolete and duplicate selections before migration.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Map source tables to governed Connector/Datasource definitions.
|
|
|
|
|
4. Convert reusable predicates into Dataflow templates or simple
|
|
|
|
|
Addresses-owned filters.
|
|
|
|
|
5. compare the new result against an authorized legacy run using counts and
|
|
|
|
|
pseudonymized stable keys.
|
|
|
|
|
6. approve and version the new segment.
|
|
|
|
|
7. migrate output layouts into typed Templates.
|
|
|
|
|
8. retain a migration report and decommission the corresponding legacy path.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Recommended Delivery Order
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Priority 1: Functional Parity Foundation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Typed party, relationship, address-purpose, and effective-date model.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Channel-neutral recipient resolution with postal snapshots.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Dynamic governed segments through Dataflow/Datasources.
|
|
|
|
|
4. Synthetic AdreMa golden-flow fixture.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Typed label, envelope, and letter templates with managed artifacts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Priority 2: Operational Parity
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Campaign postal-batch review and output flow.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Spreadsheet/report exports with exact frozen-snapshot evidence.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Consent, suppression, preferences, deduplication, merge, and quality UI.
|
|
|
|
|
4. CSV/XLSX and directory/database migration profiles.
|
|
|
|
|
5. Distribution-list expansion and Campaign integration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Priority 3: Beyond AdreMa
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Direct governed print jobs and secure release.
|
|
|
|
|
2. returned-mail and correction workflows.
|
|
|
|
|
3. postal-provider/franking integration and delivery reconciliation.
|
|
|
|
|
4. scheduled/event-driven segment refresh and recurring campaigns.
|
|
|
|
|
5. address analytics, geocoding where policy permits, and quality trends.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Completion Standard For The Umbrella Feature
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The AdreMa umbrella is complete when a user can define or reuse a permissioned
|
|
|
|
|
audience, explain and freeze the exact recipients, create reviewed label/letter
|
|
|
|
|
or digital outputs, send/export/print through installed modules, and later
|
|
|
|
|
prove exactly which source data, rules, template, actor, and delivery outcome
|
|
|
|
|
were involved. The same flow must degrade cleanly when optional modules such as
|
|
|
|
|
Mail, Campaign, Templates, Workflow, Reporting, or Print are absent.
