Business Data Definitions

The CES Common Asset Data Model (CDM) contains complex objects and relationships that are the foundation of CES solutions. SIS includes definitions for business data objects within the CDM known as Business Data Definitions (BDD). Each BDD is a logical object existing outside the physical data model but depends on the physical attributes within the CDM. Therefore, the BDDs such as Organization or Contact Address can span one or more classes internally in the CDM. Within SIS, the BDD is constructed from Forms defining the attributes or properties for insert or update, and query along with a set of translations. The translations map the BDD to the external CIS interface, map the BDD to the staging table for asynchronocity, and for including non-CES properties. Following is the OOTB BDDs list:

  • Organization

  • Contact

  • Organization Address

  • Internal Item

  • Manufacturer Item

  • Consumer of Item

  • Supplier of Item

  • Manufacturer of Item

  • Approved Supplier for an Item for an Organization

  • Approved Supplier for a Commodity for an Organization

  • Approved Manufacturer for an Item for an Organization

  • Approved Manufacturer and Manufacturing Item for an Assembly for an Organization

  • Assembly (BOM)
