Repository

In the Master Data, you set up a framework within which business models can be created and maintained.

To build a business model you must create various model items that together make a project model or reference model.

These model items must be defined in the repository, which is a library where all the model items are stored. In this way they can be used and reused in numerous business models. You can either build a project model based on a reference model or a reference model based on a project model. You can also create either business model from scratch. Regardless of your choice, before you compose a business model, you first must create model items in the repository.

Several general features are used when you create or modify a model item in the repository. The way in which you handle these features influences the way in which you can use the model items in a business model.
