Creating Business Attribute Objects
To create a Business Attribute object, perform the following actions:
- Go to Configuration > System > Configuration Manager.
- Click Business Attributes. The Business Attributes list displays.
- Click the New button.
- Enter the following information. For some fields, you can either enter the name of a value or click the
Browse button to select a value from a list:
- Name—The name of the Business Attribute. You must specify a value for this property, and that value must be
unique within the Configuration Database (in an enterprise environment) or within the Tenant (in a multi-tenant environment). Once you set
the value, you cannot change it.
- Display Name—The localized name of the Business Attribute under which this object is to be displayed on
graphical user interface elements such as dialog boxes. By default, this value is the same as for the Name property.
- Description—A brief description of the Business Attribute.
- Type—The type of the Business Attribute. You must specify a value for this property. Once you set the value,
you cannot change it.
- Tenant—In a multi-tenant environment, the Tenant to which this object
belongs. This value is automatically set to the Tenant that was specified in the Tenant Directory field in the object list.
- State Enabled—If selected, indicates that the object is in regular
operating condition and can be used without any restrictions.
- Click the Save button.
