Usage and Restrictions of VBCs
- You can define a business object as containing both standard business components and virtual business components.
- When configuring applets based on VBCs, use CSSFrame (Form) and CSSFrameList (List) instead of specialized applet classes.
- Using the same name for the VBC field names and the remote data source field names may reduce the amount of required programming. (Optional)
- Virtual business components cannot be docked, so they do not apply to remote users.
- Virtual business components cannot contain a multi-value group (MVG).
- Virtual business components do not support many-to-many relationships.
- Virtual business components cannot be loaded using Enterprise Integration Manager.
- Standard business components can not contain multi-value group based on virtual business components.
- Virtual business components cannot be implemented using any business component class other than CSSBCVExtern. This means specialized business components such as Quotes and Forecasts cannot be implemented as virtual business components.
- You cannot use Workflow Monitor to monitor virtual business components.
