Business object schema and its application-specific information

The business object schema is built out of database components that you select. Each component translates into a top-level business object.

The enterprise service discovery wizard generates the name of the business object in the form of PrefixSchemaNameObjectName, where
  • Prefix is the value as specified in the connection property named Prefix. Prefix is not required, and if not specified, no prefix will be added to the business object name.
  • SchemaName is the name of the schema to which the object belongs.
  • ObjectName is the name of the table, view, stored procedure, or synonym/nickname.
Globalized characters are supported in the business object name.

The enterprise service discovery wizard sets the TableName application-specific information attribute to a value in the form of schemaname.tablename. It sets the business object level application-specific information as listed in the table "Business object application-specific information (ASI)." The operations you select will be set in the business object. All of the generated business objects have the same structure, regardless of the object type they are generated from, either table, view, stored procedure, or synonym/nickname. All have attributes based on the columns, and the TableName ASI is set to the name of the object.

Business object application-specific information (ASI)

Business object ASI Set by enterprise service discovery wizard Additional information
TableName Yes Set to the actual name of the column
StatusColumnName Yes You specify during object selection
StatusValue Yes You specify during object selection

All business objects created are top-level. The enterprise service discovery wizard will not create any recursive (child) business objects. The enterprise service discovery wizard also generates business graphs for all business objects, because all are top-level. The name of the business graph will be the business object name followed by "BG." For example, a business object with the name JDBCSchema1Customer, would have a the business graph named JDBCSchema1CustomerBG. The operations set in the business object are also set in the business graph.
