Summary:
Condensed logic for Connections
Simple, if GMC says it’s connected, put it here:
WHERE existsInGmc == true
Condensed logic for Discrepancies
There appear to be a number of logical groups of scenarios that can occur:
Programme Memberships (DBC) do not match - 3,4,5,6,7 (Condition:
WHERE designatedBody != tcsDesignatedBody
)
ORProgramme Membership issue 11, 12, 13, 15 (Condition:
WHERE connectionStatus == "NO"
) - included in above logic, but useful to distinguish, alsoWHERE multiple programme memberships
ORGMC Numbers do not match 8,9,10 (Condition:
WHERE gmcReferenceNumber != tisGmcReferenceNumber, WHERE tisGmcReferenceNumber == null
← “tisGmcReferenceNumber” not currently an existing field!
ORSpecial Cases 1, 2, 16
WHERE placementType = F1, Where membershipType = MILLITARY, Where membershipType = INACTIVE
← we don’t currently get placement type through
ORSomething went wrong with an attempt to connect/disconnect 14 (does this need to be shown in discrepancies or is this just an error box?) -
WHERE exceptionReason != null?
17,18,19 are unclear or do not have any specific logic associated with them

What Services and methods are involved? | How does this affect what’s shown in Connections and Discrepancies and how can we test for this? | Other Notes | Can be done at query time Is this scenario is trivial? e.g. equivalent to a SQL “WHERE” clause Or does this have to be done at “update time”, i.e. would need a calculation comparing two fields during ES sync job | Related tickets |

[3] Update made via GMC Connect Doctor is Connected to a DBC (Add connection) | Doctor changed from disconnected → connected in GMC-Connect | Change in GMC Designated Body code is picked up by Reval system during the overnight sync. If doctor was previously disconnected, “existsInGmc” field will be changed from false to true Discrepancies or WHERE TIS DBC != to DoctorsForDB (GMC) DBC | If a doctor is connected to a DBC via GMC connect, this change will come through to our Revalidation system via the GMC sync. The discrepancy occurs because the TIS system is not updated accordingly We need to be able to:
| ✅ if using WHERE existsInGmc == true && connectionStatus== No
if using TIS DBC != GMC DBC | |
[4] Update made via GMC Connect Doctor is disconnected from a DBC (Remove connection) | Doctor changed from disconnected → connected in GMC-Connect | Change in GMC Designated Body code is picked up by Reval system during the overnight sync. If doctor was previously disconnected, “existsInGmc” field will be changed from false to true Current Connections: Discrepancies or WHERE TIS DBC != to DoctorsForDB (GMC) DBC | If a doctor is disconnected from a DBC via GMC connect, this change will come through to our Revalidation system via the GMC sync. The discrepancy occurs because the TIS system is not updated accordingly We need to be able to:
| ✅ if using WHERE existsInGmc == false && connectionStatus== Yes
if using TIS DBC != GMC DBC | |
[5] DBC removed/remove connection | TIS shows Current Programme Membership && No DB | The connectionStatus field essentially contains the answer to the question “does this doctor have a current programme”, so: Current Connections WHERE existsInGmc = true Discrepancies | This scenario can be covered by the same test as “Doctor is Connected to a DBC (Add connection)” Probably applies to a lot of older data? | ✅ if using WHERE existsInGmc == true && connectionStatus== No
if using TIS DBC != GMC DBC | |
[6] DBC not matching for both TIS and GMC | Doctor’s DBC is changed in GMC connect | When the DBC is changed in GMC connect, it comes through to our REVAL system during the overnight sync, but TIS is not updated, this means they will not match Current Connections: WHERE existsInGmc = true Discrepancies |
Would have to calculate TIS DBC != GMC DBC at update time | ||
[7] Programme membership not matching | Once again, rephrasing of TIS DBC != GMC DBC |
Would have to calculate TIS DBC != GMC DBC at update time | |||
[8] GMC number not matching | Not sure how why this happens, data entry error in TIS? | How do we test this? If the GMC numbers don’t match how else? by name? |
Would have to test number from GMC with number from TIS at update time | ||
[9] No GMC number in TIS GMC send a GMC number for a doctor who had no GMC number in TIS | Not sure how why this happens, data entry error in TIS? | Would have to be done at update time (“IF data update is coming from TIS AND gmc Number is null) unless we create a new field “tisGmcNumber” (“IF tisGMCNumber = null”) |
Would have to test number from TIS at update time | ||
[10] GMC provide doctor not in TIS | Rephrasing of the above? | ||||
[11] Doctor has current programme membership in TIS, not connected to DBC & programme end date is today or in the future | Elastic Search Rebuild Sync Job | Current Connections: Discrepancies or WHERE TIS DBC != to DoctorsForDB (GMC) DBC | ✅ if using WHERE existsInGmc == false && connectionStatus== Yes

[12] Doctor Connected to a DBC and Programme Membership not expired | Elastic Search Rebuild Sync Job This logic is contained within the connectionStatus field (see fields table at top of this document for details) | Current Connections: Discrepancies or WHERE TIS DBC != to DoctorsForDB (GMC) DBC | ✅ if using WHERE existsInGmc == false && connectionStatus== Yes

[14] TIS to GMC API failure | |||||
[15] Overlapping programmes in 2 regions | TIS Data Entry Error? Does the current implementation for multiple programmes being sent to reval cover this? | Where programmeName contains “|” ? | |||
