To define the entities (objects) on which a given characteristic
type can be defined, open and navigate to the Characteristic Entities tab.
Description of Page
Use the Characteristic Entity collection to define the entities
on which the characteristic type can be used. Owner indicates
if this is owned by the base package or by your implementation (Customer Modification).
Note: The values for this field are customizable using the Lookup
table. This field name is CHAR_ENTITY_FLG.
Note: For some entities in the system, the valid characteristics for
a record are defined on a related "type" entity. For example, in Oracle
Utilities Customer Care and Billing the meter type defines valid characteristics
for meters of that type. When configuring your system, in addition
to defining the appropriate entity for a characteristic type, you
may also need to link the characteristic type to an appropriate entity
"type". This technique is typically not followed for business object
driven maintenance objects, where the business objects can be configured
with the appropriate “flattened” characteristic types in the schema.
