Viewing HM Objects in Metadata Browser

Metadata Browser (Object and Application View)

Metadata Browser (Object and Application View) provides a common repository of metadata Objects created in OFSAAI and applications hosted in OFSAAI. Using this view, you can identify the usage of base Objects in higher-level Objects and the mapping of Objects to Applications. It enables to perform traceability and impact analysis. It also allows you to view the data flow and the workflow of the application and understand the usage of Objects within the application.

Metadata Browser (MDB) supports Application to view and Object view: In Application view, you can browse through the metadata created using the applications hosted in OFSAAI. In Object view, you can view the metadata created in OFSAAI.

To access the Metadata Browser (Object and Application View), your role Business Analyst (SYSBAU) must be mapped to the SCR_MDB function. For more information on mapping functions to a role, see Function - Role Map.

The Application view provides the top-down approach to view the defined metadata. The Application view shows the list of Applications at the parent level, and the Child elements are Runs for the application. This list will grow dynamically based on the Run definitions mapped to Application, through this tab users can view Run execution details in Metadata Browser.
