11.6 Summary

This chapter talked about Documentum object types and their attributes (properties). We went through detailed steps to create an object type in Docbase using the Documentum Application Builder tool. We saw some constraints in naming conventions for object types.

We then saw how to create a sample News Article object type and associate it with a Documentum lifecycle.

In the later half of the chapter we designed a few attributes of the sample News Article object type and discussed the detailed steps for creating attributes using Documentum Application Builder tool.

We touched upon usage of Value Assistance for displaying a pre-defined data set for object types' attributes and how to conditionally display different values based on certain conditions.

Value assistance can be used by providing a fixed set of hard-coded data or by querying objects and registered tables at run time.

We discussed how to create registered tables in Documentum and how to query them using value assistance.

We ended this chapter by briefly talking about how the $value() keyword helps avoid the need to write multiple conditional statements in value assistance.
