GivingRole

May be specified for PropertyTypes of DataType Relation, for two purposes:

A) To give the related entity role as Owner of the given entity.
B) To give the related entity role as Administrator (of the whole database).

Example A), giving a Person-entity role as Owner of a Family-entity:



Family                 ReadEveryone ChangeOwner

   Name

   Family_membersship  RelationMany GivingOwner

Person                 ReadEveryone ChangeOwner 

   First_name

   Last_name

   Family_membersship  RelationOne

   Mobil_phone         SMS

It is not possible to log-in as a Family. Therefore Person-entities related to a given Family is given Role as Owner.
This makes it possible for a Person to edit his own Family.
(In this example log-in is performed by requesting a one-time password as SMS-message to a given mobil-phone number.)

Example B), giving a Person-entity role as Administrator (of the whole database):



Administrator_group

   Name

   Administrator_person   RelationMany GivingAdministrator

   History                Log

Person 

   First_name

   Last_name

   Administrator_person   RelationOne

   Username               Username

   Password               Password

By creating an Administrator_group and relating it to a Person-entity the Person-entity would be granted Administrator-rights after log-in.
(In this example log-in is performed in the traditional manner by Username and Password.)
