Ontology Model

The ontology model defines object types, relationships between object types, and business logic definitions. Use Graph View to see the whole model and understand relationships between ontology elements. Use List View to quickly find and maintain definitions. The model contains seven definition types: Object Types, Relationships, Business Processes, Logic, Rules, Metrics, and Analysis Views.

Understand Business Definitions

Objects represent business concepts such as customers, orders, products, and contracts. Attributes describe their information, and relationships describe their connections. Business processes, logic, rules, and metrics add business journeys, constraints, and calculation definitions. Analysis Views provide reusable dimensions and measures.
