Locale

Description

The Locale data structure represents a geographical region or location.

The Locale data structure is used as part of the QualificationRequirement data structure when you specify a requirement based on the locale Qualification, and as part of the Qualification data structure that describes the value of a locale Qualification.

When used in a QualificationRequirement, the Locale data structure only needs to contain as much of the locale as the Worker needs to match to meet the requirement. For example, a requirement that the Worker be living anywhere in the United States would have only the Country field.
