  Object definition is a term used in SAP's Enterprise Information Management (EIM) Data Services. It is a way of defining the structure of data objects, such as tables, views, and columns. It also defines the relationships between these objects. Object definitions are used to create and manage data objects in the Data Services Designer. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Object definitions are used to create and manage data objects in the Data Services Designer. To create an object definition, you must first define the structure of the object, including its columns and relationships. Once the structure is defined, you can then add data to the object. You can also modify existing object definitions by adding or removing columns or relationships.

  When creating an object definition, it is important to consider how the data will be used. This will help you determine which columns and relationships should be included in the definition. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all columns are properly defined with the correct data type and length.
