Transparent Entity

The Transparent Entity menu contains options that allow you to add, edit, and delete the internal structure elements that compose transparent entities: field sets, base field sets, and definitions.

A transparent entity is a type of subscriber data stored in XML format in the subscriber entity configuration (SEC) (e.g., quota, profile, or dynamic quota element) and whose internal structure can be read and changed by UDR (in other words, transparent means you can manipulate fields and rows). The data can be changed using SOAP/REST provisioning software.

There are four pre-defined transparent entities that come with the system:

• PoolProfile
• PoolQuota
• Profile
• Quota

These pre-defined entities come preloaded with default configuration and these can be customized if needed.

Note that before a new transparent entity can be added (using the Adding an entity procedure), the field sets (if used), base field set, and definition to be used within that entity must first be defined.
