Please find few findings and questions below with a request to review and provide more details.
When using the V2 Registry Search API POST (Search Businesses), can you please confirm exactly which field (on the API response) will indicate Legal Name and which field will indicate the Operating Names, for each business type?
We understand that this may vary depending on business type; CAS needs to confirm the fields, for each business type.
We also understand that for some business types, the primary record (1st ACTIVE Registry Site) shows less fields than the subsequent Registry Site records. CAS would need BC Registries to confirm which business types this applies to and which Registry Site # record to refer to, to obtain the Legal Name & which record to refer to for the Operating Names. (Keeping in mind that the BC0001 record may not always be ACTIVE.)
We show 2 examples below: BN100652692 & BN 819897323. *Please note that in the following PROD example for 100652692, only “TELUS COMMUNICATIONS INC.” is considered (by CAS) to be the Legal Name, while “KOODO”, “BROAD-CONNECT TELECOM”, “TELUS MOBILITY”, “SECURE SENSE”, etc. are considered to be Operating Names.
CAS is writing code for the Corporate Financial System based on this information, so it is critical that we get this correct & confirmed by BC Registries and not base this on our assumptions.
