businessobject Command

Business objects form the body of the web apps. They contain much of the information an organization needs to control. Each object is derived from its previously-defined type and governed by its policy.

For conceptual information on this command, see MQL Concepts: Manipulating Data.

You should not use MQL to create these business objects or their derived types:

  • Organization
  • Person
  • PnOProject (Collaborative Space)
  • Role

The user interfaces that use these objects require them to have specific characteristics and conditions. For example, objects may have to have certain relationships defined, have specific values entered for attributes, be in specific lifecycle states, or be in particular vaults. When a person works within the user interface to create these objects, these data conditions are met. When MQL is used to create these objects, however, the commands can complete successfully, but the created objects cannot be used by the apps.
