Object

Object defines a screen of the product: its code, module and type, which toolbar buttons it allows, whether it posts, imports, clones or prints, its name in each language, its reports, import template, AI templates and the products (ERP, HR, hospital) that show it.

What it is for​

These are configuration screens: they change the product for every client that shares the configuration, so they are worked by ABS consultants, normally on the development system. The Create, Edit, View, Delete and Reverse ticks here are the most a role can give on the screen: Roles clears any right the screen does not allow. The Products tab decides which product shows the screen; a screen is part of Businessflo when ERP is listed.
