Regardless of the particular object type or hierarchy that you are working with, the general principles of maintaining objects in the workbench are the same, and are described in the All Objects topic. This includes general information on creating, editing, approving, and deleting objects.
Note: The All Objects information should be read and understood prior to focusing on any of the object type specific information (links below), as the basic information that is common to all object types is not repeated in the type-specific sections.
Beyond the general object maintenance topics, additional information on working with specific object types in Tree, including details about the various editors and functionalities available on them can be found in the subsequent topics in this guide:
- Assets
- Classifications
- Collections
- Entities
- Products
- Recycle Bin for the Tree Tab
- Publications: Information about maintenance of objects in the green publication hierarchy is not covered in this guide. It is located in the Publication Hierarchy section of the Publisher (Adobe InDesign Integration) documentation.
Note: All actions are controlled via privileges. Some users may not have access to create or delete objects, or may only have options to edit specific object types, hierarchies, or attribute values. The information in this guide focuses strictly on the means for carrying out the various actions, and assumes that all required privileges are available to do so. More information on privileges is available in the Privilege Rules topic in the System Setup documentation.
A variety of components are also available for maintaining objects in Web UI. For more information, refer to the Web User Interfaces documentation. Additionally, objects are often created or maintained within workflows, or via imports, integration endpoints, bulk updates, etc. These types of object maintenance are outside the scope of this material, but additional information is available in the relevant guides throughout the STEP Online Help.
