      <SectionTitle>Process: ODM infrastructure (code: MOD00a)</SectionTitle>
      <Paragraph>The objective of this process is to provide a highly
		configurable framework to manage the ODM infrastructure. This process helps in
		managing the registration of entities as object type in ODM and in providing a
		composite user authorization in which the existing ERP Enterprise users can
		be assigned various roles that help in managing and completing the desired life
		cycle operations in ODM.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>A common generic mechanism to generate the unique identifier is
		available in the ODM and the number is generated depending upon the mask
		defined by the user. The authorizations in ODM provides the permissions to
		perform particular actions that are associated with roles, rather than with
		individual users. An individual user who is assigned a role may perform all the
		ODM defined actions that are permitted for that role.</Paragraph>
