- You can pass search and sort specifications to the business service used by a VBC.
- You can use Validation, Pre Default Value, Post Default Value, Link Specification, and No Copy attributes of VBC fields.
- You can use predefined queries with VBC.
- You can have picklists based on VBC and use the picklist properties such as No Insert, No Delete, No Update, No Merge, Search Specification, and Sort Specification.
