Hey guys,I have a model that has_one "ANZIC code".
ANZIC codes are classifiers set by the gov that are 4 or fewer levels deep:
division, sub-division, class & group.Most of the time, the objects we're
tracking won't have an advertised code, so the data entry person will need to
drill down into the classifications to hone in on the most appropriate code.
I'm thinking 4 sequential select lists for UI. (Let me know if you've a better
idea. :-)What about model-wise? I'm not keen on the idea of creating 3
has_many relationships, resulting in 4 look-up queries, but I also think a
nested set may be overkill because this isn't n-levels deep, it's always 4 or
less. How should it be designed so that it'll be easy to reference and easy to
display the full compound code string?Please and thank you!
