The table entries to be displayed are found through a selection script and an object definition condition.
-
Formulate a selection script as a VB.Net expression which returns either True (True) or False (False), depending on whether or not the transferred data record belongs to this object definition.
-
Formulate a condition as a WHERE clause database query so that an object definition can also be used for display in result lists.
IMPORTANT: You must compile the database for the selection criteria to come into effect.
Example: Displaying system roles for the IT Shop
Selection script to determine at runtime whether this data record concerns a system role for the IT Shop:
Value = $IsForITShop:Bool$
Condition (WHERE clause) to determine whether this system role concerns the IT Shop:
IsForITShop=1

You can define the following captions to represent each object definition in the administration tool user interface.
-
List caption
The list caption is used in One Identity Manager tools as the title for result lists. The display text of the object definition that you specified through the selected menu item, is used as the list title.
-
Form caption
The form caption is used to display the current object definition, for example, in the Manager's status bar.
The current object definition is determined when an item in the administration tool result list is selected. Valid object definitions and thereby the possible captions are determined by selection scripts. From the possible display texts, the caption of the object definition with the lowest sort order is shown.
Example:
Table 31: Captions depending on the sort order of the object definitions

When you select an employee in the result list, the related caption is System roles. If the system role is also labeled for the IT Shop (IsForITShop=1), this object is assigned to another object definition by means of the VB.Net expression and the display text System roles for IT Shop is used.
