Alfabet provides two different scenarios to capture data flows in the information architecture. The Basic Data Management use case is an easy, less complex approach where data is managed for business objects..
- The use case Basic Data Management is activated per default. In this case, the transfer of data is captured via business objects.
- Business objects are at the leaf level of the hierarchy Business Object Category > Business Object.
- Data workbenches will be available in the navigation panel for Business Object Categories and Business Objects.
- Information flows transfer business objects between applications. A Transferred Business Objects view is available in the information flow content area where transferred data can be captured from the perspective of the incoming or outgoing information flow.
- Data usage and CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations are captured for the business object.
- The business questions Where do we use sensitive data? and Where is our data processed? visualize business objects.
