After installation and before startup, you must configure components as described in this section.
Configuring the connector includes setting up and configuring the connector. For details, see Configuring the connector.
You configure business objects through an ODA (Object Discovery Agent). The ODA enables you to generate business object definitions. A business object definition is a template for a business object. The ODA examines specified application objects, "discovers" the elements of those objects that correspond to business object attributes, and generates business object definitions to represent the information. Business Object Designer provides a graphical interface to access the Object Discovery Agent and to work with it interactively.
For details about using the ODA, see Creating and modifying business objects.
