A business class can be mapped to an execution class.

To map a business class to an execution class:

  1. In the Outline view, click the class that you want to map.
  2. In the BOM Editor, in the BOM to XOM Mapping section, type the name of the execution class in the Execution name field.
  3. Save the BOM.
  4. The business class is now mapped to an execution class.

For example, in your BOM, there is a business class named ShoppingCart. You need to map this business class to an execution class called Cart in the XOM. To do the mapping, select the class ShoppingCart, and in the BOM Editor specify Cart as the Execution name.
