How the model is organised

Configuration

Organizations, People and social channels establish the owning organization and channel context.

Operations

Social profiles carries the measured property; post performance facts and metric observations hold dated readings; source snapshots records capture dates and coverage.

Execution and provenance

Metric definitions and source mappings describe measures and inputs. Metric results, operation runs and operation steps retain values and run history.

Review and evidence

Review decisions, state history, evidence documents and follow up actions preserve decisions, transitions and corrective work.

Keys and references

Social profiles links to Organizations, People and social channels. Post performance facts points back through Parent. Metric observations connects a profile with a source snapshots capture. Metric results connects the source profile, metric definition and operation run. Review decisions stores the source revision and reviewer. State history records each source transition with actor and revision. These links let a reviewer move from a reported value to the input, calculation context and decision.

Migration order

  1. Load Organizations and People, then establish Users access.
  2. Add social channels and source mappings with their effective dates.
  3. Create social profiles with owner, definition, source identity and consent context.
  4. Add source snapshots, post performance facts and metric observations for the pilot window.
  5. Establish metric definitions and inspect metric results with linked operation runs and operation steps.
  6. Bring over review decisions, state history, evidence documents and follow up actions with their original references.
