Custom Object Packages

Objects, menu-only objects, and system attributes are all stored in packages that you create. You can place objects in any package you want, but storing related objects in the same package helps you manage them.

The object designer includes one default package, named CO, to give you a head start when creating custom objects. You can add objects, menu-only objects, and system attributes to this package, just like you can with any of the packages you create.

Note: Each package can contain a maximum of 25 custom objects.

The object designer’s tree also includes a list of standard objects under the OracleServiceCloud entry to help you manage system attributes. System attributes are stored in packages just like objects are, but it can be challenging to manage numerous system attributes that are stored in several packages. The entries in the OracleServiceCloud list display all the system attributes created for different standard objects. For example, if you click the Contact entry in the OracleServiceCloud list, you will see all the system attributes that have been created for the contacts standard objects, grouped by the package they are in.
