An object has many aspects, each of which can be extensively modified.

To customize an object:

  1. Designer > Data > Objects > {object}
    The Customize {object} page appears.
  2. Use the buttons and tabs in that page (listed below) to access the various aspects of the object.
Buttons
Each button opens a page that has a single set of values for the object. There is one set of values for properties, for example, and one for record locators, so each page contains a set of fields that contain those values.
Tabs
The tabs open pages that allow multiple items to be specified for the object: Multiple fields, multiple form layouts, and so on. So each tab displays a grid view of the items in that category.
