Group Entities into Business Objects Types

A Business Object Type represents a logical grouping of related configuration data. In the example application, it is clear that there are two concrete pieces of information. They are as follows:

• Information pertaining to a folder and their related permissions
• Information specific to a user and its associated relative types such as to-do and note items.

Hence, the entities that make up the PIM application can be logically grouped into two categories – in other words, two Business Object Types. One is the Folder Business Object Type, which contains information specific to folders and their related permissions. The other is the User Business Object Type, which carries information about users and other related details.
