Root Node Properties

Root Node Properties

Use the Provisioning tool to configure the following properties for a root node.
Name
Name of the root node or the business entity model. The name appears only in the Provisioning tool.
Label
Label for the business entity that you want to appear within views in
Data Director
.
If you do not specify a label or a label format for the business entity, the name appears as the label for the business entity.
If you localize the metadata for
Data Director
 and use the metadata bundle file,
besMetadata.properties
, the labels and label formats in the metadata bundle file take precedence over the labels and label formats configured in the node properties panel.
Description
Optional. Description of the root node.
State Management Enabled
Determines if state management is enforced among all nodes in the business entity.
Base Object
The base object in the MDM Hub with which you want to associate the root node.
Label Format
Optional. Label for the business entity that consists of field values instead of hard coded text. The label format that you configure appears in the views in
Data Director
.
Syntax of the label format is {<field name 1>}, {<field name n>}. For example, use {lastName}, {firstName} to display the values of the last name and the first name as the label.
If you specify a label format and a hard coded label, a label with the specified format appears in all the views in
Data Director
.
If you do not specify a label or a label format, the business entity name appears as a label for the business entity in the views in
Data Director
.
If you localize the metadata for
Data Director
 and use the metadata bundle file,
besMetadata.properties
, the labels and label formats in the metadata bundle file take precedence over the labels and label formats configured in the node properties panel.
