Documentation

Definition

Internal, technical key of a business object in the Business Object Repository (BOR).

Business objects in the BOR are identified by object type (for example BUS2032) and a descriptive, English name (for example SalesOrder). Both identifiers must be unique across all object types.

Business objects are often addressed using the descriptive name from external applications, while internally in the BOR they are mostly identified using the object type. Initially, only the internal key was used, but the extensive use of business objects has given rise to the need for addressing them using names. For compatibility reasons, both identifiers are now used.

The object type can have a maximum of 10 characters.
