Description of Page

Most maintenance objects are provided with the base package. An implementation can introduce custom maintenance objects when needed. Most fields may not be changed if owned by the base package.

Enter a unique Maintenance Object name and Description. Owner indicates if this business object is owned by the base package or by your implementation (Customer Modification).

Important: If you introduce a new maintenance object, carefully consider its naming convention. Refer to System Data Naming Convention for more information.

Service Name is the name of the internal service associated with the maintenance object.

The grid displays the following for each table defined under the maintenance object:

  • Table is the name of a given table maintained as part of the maintenance object.

  • Table Role defines the table's place in the maintenance object hierarchy. Only one Primary table may be specified within a maintenance object, but the maintenance object may contain many Child tables.

  • Parent Constraint ID specifies the constraint used to link the table to its parent table within the maintenance object table hierarchy.

  • Owner indicates if this is owned by the base package or by your implementation (Customer Modification).
