Color Coding

If you can view this document in color, you will notice that each entity is colored. The color indicates a logical grouping of entities. For example, form related entities are one color and taxpayer information related entities are a different color.

Some entities are not color-coded (i.e., they are white). These entities do not have a dedicated page, as they are part of a parent entity. For example, the Person / Person entity is related to the Person object and does not have its own maintenance object.

The following table describes the colors utilized in the documentation:
