Define Merge Actions for Business Object Process and Procedure Help Properties
Set merge actions for Business Object Process and Procedure Help Properties.
Use the Process and Procedure Help page in the Business Object Properties window to define overwrite options for process and procedure help properties of a Business Object.
Note: The
Business Object Properties window is available in
the
Business
Object Editor (accessed from within the
Object
Manager in the
mApp Editor).
Good to know:
- You can only configure separate merge actions for individual Business Object properties and areas if the Business Object is set to Merge in the Business Object Properties window (mApp® Solution page). If the Business Object is set to any other option, or if the Include in mApp check box is cleared, then you cannot configure separate merge actions for individual properties or areas.
- If you do not see the Process and Procedure Help page, close the mApp Solution (after saving) and go to . Select the Help page, and then select Show Process and Terminology Help. For more information about enabling process and procedure help, refer to Configure Global Help Settings.
-
If you are configuring merge actions for a Business Object that was previously applied as part of a Protected mApp Solution, the main differences are:
- You see a message saying Protected Business Object! Changes are restricted.
- Some fields and options are not available to be changed.
- See Protected mApp™ Solutions.
- For more information about defining process and procedure help properties for a Business Object, refer to Define Process and Procedure Help Properties for a Business Object.
