Work with the IDD Configuration XML File

An IDD configuration XML file can easily run to hundreds of lines.

A full file is not shown here, only the relevant snippet. You can find a full configuration file in the Resource Kit or by exporting it from the IDD Configuration Manager.

The following code snippet is an example of a subject area group with a single subject area:

<subjectAreaGroup name="Customer" primaryObjectUid="C_PARTY">
        <subjectArea name="Person">
            <primaryObject hmEntityTypeUid="Person">
                <subTypeQualifier columnUid="C_PARTY|PARTY_TYPE"  filterValue="Person"/>
                <cleanseFunction 
                                cleanseFunctionUid="BDD Cleanse and Validation Library|CVPerson">
                    <cleanseInput>
                        <cleanseColumn columnUid="C_PARTY|FIRST_NAME" parameterName="firstName"/>
                        <cleanseColumn columnUid="C_PARTY|MIDDLE_NAME"
