A logical cluster of related data which represents a new view of an information object.
Description
The data object usually represents a set of information needed to perform an activity, or as a result of an activity.
A common way to identify data objects is to study application screens: the rule of thumb is that each screen image, or natural part of a screen image such as a tab, constitutes a data object.
Example
Some examples of data objects are
- ''Customer'' which contains data related to Person and Addresses.
- ''Order'' which contains data related to Order lines and its products as well as delivery address.
