I want to implement Schema.org for bid announcements and I'm a bit confused since there is no available type for it.
I have the following fields associated with it:
title
date of announced
closing date and time
body (announcement content)
organization name
organization address
categories in which the announcement belongs
For call for bids, you can use Schema.org’s Demand type.
There is no property for the full text (if it’s not too complex/long, you could use the description property) or for the categories.
You can use the seeks property (with the Organization as domain) and/or the seller property (with the Demand as domain) to point to the Organization that has the demand.

Is it possible to reference additional columns apart from the 'Code' and 'Name' columns when using a domain attribute in an entity?
E.g. A person entity has a code of '1' and a name of 'Smith' and a Gender of 'Male'
In a customer entity there is a domain value referencing the person entity which displays the following 1 {Smith}. The users would like an additional read only attribute which would copy the Gender value of 'Male' into the customer entity based on the domain value. Can this be done using out of the box MDS UI?
I know this is duplicate data and breaks normal form but for usability this would be useful. It would be the equivalent of referencing additional columns in an MS Access drop down list.
Many thanks in advance for any help
This is not possible with the standard UI. One option would be to develop a custom UI where you can handle these kind of requests.
If you want to stick with the standard product I can see a workaround but this is a bit of a "dirty" one.
You can misuse (abuse) the Name attribute of the Person entity by adding a business rule to the Person entity that generates the content of the Name attribute as a concatenation of multiple attributes. You of course need an additional attribute that serves as a place holder for the original Name. The concatenated field will then show in your customer entity.
One question that does come to mind is why a user would like/need to see the gender of a person in a customer list? As you have a separate Person entity I expect you to have multiple persons per customers. What would the gender of one person - even if it is the main contact - matter?
Dear helpers and saviors !
I'm trying to create some dynamic forms with Silex.
My objective is to have the user create a state in a existing country. I would like him/her to select a region (like Asia, Europe, America...), then select a country to which link the newly created state.
I have some "classic" and simple forms extending AbstractType, in which the user can select the country directly. I created a choice list based on a call to a DAO (database) to find all available countries. I would like to add a region choice_list field to reduce the number of available country (and reduce the database charge as well even if it isn't my main goal).
I've seen http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/form/dynamic_form_modification.html#cookbook-form-events-submitted-data, but it seem that we can't create subform for elements that are "parents" of the main class (or that i did not understood how), saying that the link is not stored in my object i would like to create. What i would like to do here is to add a field for the 2-level above (state->country->region), not direcly linked (a state have a country, and a country have a region) region.
I do not manage to imagine or code it properly, or even simply displaying.
Please note that i'll have to do it on several levels (state, city, and some other classes), and i would like to find a quite generic way to do it (understand not a ready solution for this particular example).
Any ideas ?
Please excuse my english, and thank you very much for your help !
For reference, here are my DB links between objects :
Region : ID and Name
Country : Codes, ID, Name and link to Region's ID
State : Codes, ID, Name and link to Country's ID
City : Name, ID and link to State's ID
I managed to do what i wanted.
I created supplementary forms, asking for filling each of the "parent" objects.
So in addition to my Types forms, i now have a selection a Select forms, allowing me to select Region, then Country, then State.
Creating a product set requires associating a product_catalog_id:
POST https://graph.facebook.com/<API_VERSION>/<PRODUCT_CATALOG_ID>/product_sets
Reading an product set having the Facebook id is easy:
GET https://graph.facebook.com/<API_VERSION>/<PRODUCT_SET_ID>
Unfortunately, the response for that request contains 3 fields (id, name and filter).
How can I get the product_catalog_id associated to a product set (if I know the product_set_id)?
PS: The documentation does not help with that: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/dynamic-product-ads/product-catalog#productset
The catalog ID is not a field of the product set, so you therefore cannot traverse the graph in this way.
The only way to gather this associated is to read read the catalogues in a business, and their product sets to find the correct association unfortunately.
We started to use the vocabulary from Schema.org and we are looking for a simple and effective way to reference an object by its identifier or a unique URL.
For example, in the Organization type there is a property employee which refers to Person. We would like to be able to refer to it using a unique identifier instead of the whole object.
What would be the best solution according to Schema.org?
If the Person (resp. the name-value pairs) is defined on the same page, you could use the itemref attribute, containing reference to the id(s):
Elements with an itemscope attribute may have an itemref attribute specified, to give a list of additional elements to crawl to find the name-value pairs of the item.
With Microdata’s itemid attribute you can specify a URL that identifies an item.
However, Microdata requires that vocabularies explicitly specify support of itemid, which Schema.org hasn’t done yet.
The iPhone Contacts app has a nice interface for saving addresses. When you change the country, the fields change to be specific to that country's address fields. For example, the US has a "Zip" field, where other countries have a "Postal Code".
Is there any method to get these fields, possibly by passing a country code?
I think what you are looking for is ABCreateStringWithAddressDictionary method of ABAddressFormatting class. Here is the link to the ABAddressFormatting Class reference
