Creating a New Business Object for the Screen Home Page View

Screen home page views are implemented using a separate, scaled-down copy of the business object to which the other views in a given screen map. For example, in the Accounts screen the Account Screen Home Page View is based on the Account Home business object. Other views in the screen are based on the Account business object.

NOTE:  Because screen home page views are based on different a business object than the other views in a screen, you must associate iHelp items to both business objects. For example, to have the Create a New Account iHelp task appear on both the Activities screen home page view and the Activities screen views (My Activities, My Team's Activities, and so on), you must associate both the Action Home and the Action business objects with the iHelp item.

This task is a step in Process for Creating Screen Home Page Views.
