Governance apps users who use the existing Business Data Model Configuration app can decide to:

  • Switch to the unified typing system whenever they want by adding existing subtypes to specialization packages and introducing deployment extensions.
  • Keep subtypes defined on "non specializable" types.
  • Keep attributes added to DS types.
