2.7 Function Category

This topic describes the function category.

Provide Function category depending on the type of screen being developed. ODT provides the following options:

Maintenance: These screens are typically used to maintain static data used across the system. These screens include product definition function as well. Example: Branch Parameters Maintenance.

Transaction: These screens are typically used to capture contract related data. Any operations related to contracts are performed in these screens Example: Funds Transfer Contract Input screen.

Summary: If only query operation is required for the particular function Id, then function category can be selected as Summary.

Others: If developer feels that existing handles provided in maintenance/transaction screens in extensible framework is inadequate (or not necessary) for the screen; screen can be designed as others. Note that all business logic would have to be manually written by the developer for others screen.
