The App Designer can choose to configure by the following.

  • Global 
  • Domain
  • Sub Domain
  • Tenant

Global

When Configure by is selected as Global, the Master Type will be published to all Domain, Sub Domain & Tenant. In case you would like to exclude, please define the exclusion list below.

FieldDescription

Select the Domain which needs to be excluded.
Sub DomainSelect the Sub Domain which needs to be excluded.
TenantSelect the Tenant which needs to be excluded.

Without Exclusion

By default, when Global Domain is selected, the Exclusion List will be selected as No. When Exclusion List is selected as No, the Master Type will be published Globally without exclusions.

Example: 
Let's say you have a Common Master list of employees in a company, and you want to exclude certain employees based on specific criteria, such as their job title or department. Here's how you might do it:

  1. Excluding Employees based on Tenant:

    Let's say you want to exclude employees from the Marketing department. In this case, you would exclude employees whose Tenant is "Marketing."

    Excluded Employees:

    Employee IDNameJob TitleTenant
    002Jane DoeMarketing ManagerMarketing

    Remaining Employees:

    Employee IDNameJob TitleTenant
    001John SmithSoftware EngineerEngineering
    003Michael BrownHR AssistantHuman Resources
    004Emily JohnsonSales AssociateSales
    005David LeeAccountantFinance

This is a simplified example of how exclusion by example could work in a Common Master list of employees. In practice, the criteria for exclusion could be more complex and could involve multiple conditions.

Domain

A domain is the highest entity under which you can configure other platform components. By default, there is only one Domain. When Configure by is selected as Domain, the Master Type will be published to the selected Domain (Including its Sub Domains and Tenants). In case you would like to have exclusions, select Yes under Exclusion List.

With Exclusion

To Configure by Domain along with exclusions, select yes under the Exclusion list.

When Configure by is selected as Sub Domain, the Master Type will be published to the selected Sub Domain and its Tenants. In case you would like to have exclusions, select Yes under Exclusion List.

With Exclusion

To Configure by Domain along with exclusions, select yes under the Exclusion list.
