## Shared terminology and scenario fragments


### S03. Enterprise With Sub-Organizations

Frozen source: [scenarios/ScenarioTests.md](../source/scenarios/ScenarioTests.md) lines 36–47; SHA-256 `76282210f7df6bf26635ede205ed08215908eb82f8c84d411178bc01516a3f4d`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## S03. Enterprise With Sub-Organizations

Expected representation: Organization actors linked by structural
relationships, plus Accounts and Membership relationships scoped to relevant
systems.

Checks:

- Sub-organization is not automatically a tenant.
- Legal entity status is modeled separately.
- Membership and administration relationships are explicit.

```

### S04. Vendor Tenant Serving Customer Tenants

Frozen source: [scenarios/ScenarioTests.md](../source/scenarios/ScenarioTests.md) lines 48–59; SHA-256 `f674aa6466c45664d941359e2016a5f43a9ef58f58f1299f1ecb39003ef9a0c3`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## S04. Vendor Tenant Serving Customer Tenants

Expected representation: Vendor and Customer relationship roles between
Organization actors; Tenant scopes for platform isolation; optional
Administration relationships for delegated support.

Checks:

- Customer is not collapsed into Tenant.
- Vendor is not collapsed into Realm.
- Cross-tenant administration is scoped and evidenced.

```

### S05. Customer Organization With Delegated Administrators

Frozen source: [scenarios/ScenarioTests.md](../source/scenarios/ScenarioTests.md) lines 60–70; SHA-256 `40271bc925011808c60854faf342853ed48ff737afc7885921b62696b02c69d3`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## S05. Customer Organization With Delegated Administrators

Expected representation: Organization actor, Tenant scope, administrator
Accounts, Delegation and Administration relationships.

Checks:

- Admin rights are relationships, not just group names.
- Delegation has source, target, scope, and lifecycle state.
- Authorization projection can consume the relationship separately.

```

### S07. Spontaneous Interest Group

Frozen source: [scenarios/ScenarioTests.md](../source/scenarios/ScenarioTests.md) lines 83–93; SHA-256 `b4d3ed3df96d57dfc9defcb0395c134e500c79375972ccb978c2abfb64da7247`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## S07. Spontaneous Interest Group

Expected representation: Community or Group collective actor, Membership
relationships, optional moderator Administration relationships.

Checks:

- Informal group does not need legal entity or tenant semantics.
- Moderation is not the same as membership.
- Group identity can exist without strong real-world identity proofing.

```

### S15. Organization Represented By A Legal Entity And Operational Tenants

Frozen source: [scenarios/ScenarioTests.md](../source/scenarios/ScenarioTests.md) lines 173–184; SHA-256 `a809f4bae8f243f9034887ad2c16903449999ae695c2fc1c4fc089cf9b7020a0`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## S15. Organization Represented By A Legal Entity And Operational Tenants

Expected representation: Organization actor, Legal Entity specialization or
relationship, one or more Tenant scopes, and Representation relationships for
authorized persons or agents.

Checks:

- Legal entity and tenant are separate model elements.
- Multiple tenants can relate to one organization.
- Representation authority is scoped and evidenced.

```

### Conflict: Account

Frozen source: [terminology/TerminologyConflictMap.md](../source/terminology/TerminologyConflictMap.md) lines 44–59; SHA-256 `5bc5a473a54d20d4cbba778d5f4508e0655cb755d118583715873b2ca81533a2`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## Conflict: Account

Problem: account can mean login account, customer billing account, social
media handle, service account, or FOAF online presence.

Source evidence:

- FOAF OnlineAccount is service presence, explicitly not Person (`foaf-agent-person-group-onlineaccount.md`)
- LDAP posixAccount is attribute bundle on person entry (`ldap-rfc4519-inetorgperson-rfc2798.md`)
- ActivityPub `acct:` URI suggests account but actor is richer (`activitypub-actors-followers.md`)
- ZITADEL machine user = Service Account (`zitadel-organizations-projects.md`)

Canonical stance: Account is operational access record in a scope. Billing
records map to Commercial Record; commercial parties use Customer/Vendor roles
and Commercial Relationship.

```

### Conflict: Tenant, Realm, Organization, Customer

Frozen source: [terminology/TerminologyConflictMap.md](../source/terminology/TerminologyConflictMap.md) lines 80–99; SHA-256 `3e920b787354989a9cce48cc7b45c915150b215b4fcdfe054b854d9cc9748191`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## Conflict: Tenant, Realm, Organization, Customer

Problem: multi-tenant products collapse isolation boundaries and commercial actors.

Source evidence:

- Keycloak Realm = hard namespace; Organization = B2B overlay (`keycloak-organizations.md`)
- ZITADEL Organization = customer boundary + org actor (`zitadel-organizations-projects.md`)
- SCIM has no tenant; org is string attribute (`scim-rfc7643-rfc7644.md`)
- Schema.org Organization = collective actor (`schema-org-person-organization-membership.md`)

Canonical stance:

- Tenant = administrative/isolation scope
- Realm = issuer/admin namespace (Scope specialization)
- Organization = collective actor
- Customer = commercial relationship role

Model relationships among them; do not synonymize.

```

### Conflict: Synonymity, Linking, Matching, Merge

Frozen source: [terminology/TerminologyConflictMap.md](../source/terminology/TerminologyConflictMap.md) lines 163–177; SHA-256 `a714d30d2c1bedfcfe3020fa277c5a6226ec408eebd65efc33aadcba9b825ddf`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## Conflict: Synonymity, Linking, Matching, Merge

Problem: systems collapse probabilistic matches, verified links, and destructive
merges into one feature.

Source evidence:

- Probabilistic matching → weak assertion (`deterministic-vs-probabilistic-matching.md`)
- OIDC iss+sub binding → strong scoped assertion (`oidc`, `synonymity-assertions` notes)
- Schema.org sameAs = weak web equivalence (`schema-org` note)
- GDPR cross-linking raises identifiability risk (`gdpr-pseudonymization.md`)
- MDM golden record merge = downstream anti-pattern (`deterministic` note)

Canonical stance: synonymity is scoped, evidenced, revocable assertion.

```

### Conflict: Customer Account

Frozen source: [terminology/TerminologyConflictMap.md](../source/terminology/TerminologyConflictMap.md) lines 204–222; SHA-256 `f88abdae039caa5135f7acfb7545747a141fe84703b23f45c918c209d1b73654`.
Historical wording; this is not a current model definition.

```text
## Conflict: Customer Account

Problem: `customer account` collapses login account, B2B subscriber organization,
Stripe billing customer, and CRM account into one product noun.

Source evidence:

- Auth0 uses Subscriber for tenant holder, not customer account (`b2b-saas-subscriber-tenancy.md`)
- Stytch: organization is the customer (`b2b-saas-subscriber-tenancy.md`)
- Stripe Customer is billing object with subscriptions, not login (`stripe-customer-billing.md`)
- ZITADEL/Keycloak org-as-tenant has no Customer Account type (`zitadel`, `keycloak` notes)

Canonical stance: **reject Customer Account** as canonical term. Resolve by layer:

- login/access → Account;
- subscribing company → Organization + Customer role + Tenant;
- billing/CRM → Commercial Record;
- vendor↔customer link → Commercial Relationship.

```

### legal entity
