Artifacts

With objectiF RPM, you have the option of adding your own artifacts and relationships to the data model. To do this, create a new form with the form designer for each new artifact type, with which the artifacts can then be created and edited. This enables you to create dialog windows with varying input fields and use them context-specifically.

Create user-defined artifact types

If elements are lacking that you need in your project, you can define new artifact types. You can work with these artifacts in the same way as you work with the artifacts that are provided by default. You can create revisions and variants, display the history, and define evaluations. You can share them, generate documents in MS Word and exchange them between projects.

Create user-defined artifact relationships

In most cases, to create relationships to existing elements you’ll also need artifact relationships . Like new artifacts, you’ll need to create these artifact relationships.

Create forms

If you have created new artifacts, you’ll need to create at least one form so that it will be possible to add them in a project.

Create state machines

If you have created artifacts, artifact relationships, and forms, you may want to map a corresponding workflow using a state machine, so that you can then set states later in the project, for example.
