Creating Domains, Application Areas, Work Areas, and Objects

Before creating Domains, Application Areas, and Work Areas, you should carefully design a set of these structures.

For details, see "Designing an Organizational Structure" in the Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub Implementation Guide. See also Keep Container and Object Names Short for Integrated Development Environments.

Note:

Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub can display a maximum of 200 rows at a time by default, so if you define more than 200 Domains within a Domain, or Application Areas within a Domain, or Work Areas within an Application Area, or objects within either an Application Area or Work Area, you get an error. Therefore, Oracle recommends that you design your organizational structure to avoid this problem. Alternatively, it is possible to reset the Oracle Applications profile FND: View Object Max Fetch Size to display more than 200 rows at a time; however this affects all your Oracle Applications.

• Creating Domains
  A Domain is the highest-level organizational structure in Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub. Domains are intended to contain logically related child Domains, Application Areas and/or a library of validated object definitions that are suitable for reuse.
• Creating Application Areas
  Application Areas contain Work Areas for the different life cycle stages of a single application. They also contain any object definitions that are created specifically for their application through one of their Work Areas.
• Creating Work Areas
  Application development work occurs in a Work Area.
• Creating or Adding Children, including Object Instances
  In Oracle Life Sciences Data Hub a "child" is an object that is contained in another object, which is called the "parent." In the main Applications screen you can use the Create Child icon to do the following:
• Creating Object Definitions
  Oracle recommends always creating objects in a Work Area, where you can install and test them.
