Review Visual Elements for All Business Objects

The Definition Reviewer provides a quick way to review and modify Forms, Grids, and Form Arrangements for all Business Objects. This is useful for ensuring consistency and usability across visual elements in your system, especially after you apply translations to your system using the Globalization tool set.

You can review and modify:

  • All visual elements in a Blueprint or mApp
  • Changed visual elements in a Blueprint or mApp
