Definition

Use

If this indicator is set, the role instances are not written to a separate table. The disadvantage of this is that performance problems can occur when relationships are accessed generically (without giving the relationship type). Therefore, only set this indicator when relationships in which this role occurs are not to be accessed generically.

If this indicator is not set, the role instances are written in a separate table. This has the disadvantage that the table, which can get very large, contains redundant information. On the other hand, performance problems when accessing the relationships generically can be avoided.

Dependencies

Examples

The existence of role records is a prerequisite for reading document flows and for the display of relationships using generic object services.

Relationships with notes or attachments do not need persistent roles because the relationship type is given when the relationships are read.
