Adding a Field to a Node

Adding a Field to a Node

After you create a node in the reference entity structure, you can add fields to the node. The fields correspond to columns in the lookup base object that is associated with the node. For example, you want to add the Gender Code field to the LU Gender node. The LU Gender node is associated with the C_LU_GENDER lookup base object, which has a Gender_Code column.
  1. Click
    Business Entity
    Modeling
    , and then select
    Reference Entities
    .
  2. Select the reference entity.
  3. In the tree view panel, select
    Fields
    , and then click
    Create
    .
  4. In the properties panel, select the base object column to associate with the field from the
    Column
     list.
    For example, select
    Gender_Code
    .
    You created the base object columns in the MDM Hub.
  5. Enter a field name and a field label name.
    For example, enter
    Gender Code
    .
  6. Optionally, configure the other field properties. For more information, see Field Properties.
  7. Optionally, configure field filters by user role. For more information, see Adding Field Filters to a Reference Entity.
  8. Click
