Data element Definition
BUSINESS_ADMINISTRATOR_PENN_ID

Indexed - no
Format - number
May be null? yes

The Penn ID of the Business Administrator (BA) of the Responsible Org for the protocol (PROTOCOL_NUMBER).

A Penn ID is an 8-digit identification number assigned to an individual by Penn Community system. For example: 77777777. No two persons have the same Penn ID. Note that Penn IDs created in and assigned by Penn Community begin at 10000000. Within the Data Warehouse, the numeric range from 00000000-00999999 is used for individuals who do not yet have a Penn ID in Penn Community, to allow for reliable joins between tables using the PENN_ID column. When a Penn ID appears for the individual appear in Penn Community, it will replace the assigned value throughout the Data Warehouse.

Further information about the Business Administrator is available in the PENNERA_PEOPLE table (in the DWADMIN schema). Note: BUSINESS_ADMINISTRATOR_PENN_ID is stored in NUMBER format, but the format for PENN_ID in PENNERA_PEOPLE is CHAR(8). The Business Objects Universes that include BUSINESS_ADMINISTRATOR_PENN_ID convert it to a character value when joining it to PENN_ID in PENNERA_PEOPLE.
