  Key Concepts: 
  A child object is a type of object in the SAP Enterprise Portal Infrastructure (EP-PIN) component. It is a subordinate object that is linked to a parent object. The parent object is the main object that contains the data and the child object contains additional information related to the parent object.

  Child objects are used to store additional information related to the parent object. For example, if you have a customer record in the parent object, you can create a child object to store additional information such as contact details, payment information, etc. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating child objects, make sure that they are linked to the correct parent object. This will ensure that all of the data is stored in the correct place and can be easily accessed when needed.
