# Objects and Fields

> Per line of business and object: the fields MDM maintains, the row actions and SAP operations, the rules SAP applies, the differences on the Private Edition, the value helps and your own fields.

> **Draft brief for authors.** Section page. The Fields, Actions, Rules and Private Edition pages of every object family are GENERATED from the product model (`describeStagingTable`, `db/staging.cds`, `srv/sap-editions.gen.json`, `docs/help-portal/<family>.md`); only the family overview pages are hand-written. A new line of business adds one group here.
