Common application implementation

As a best practice, use the following approach to integrate the Common Data Model in a new application:

1. Install the Common Data Model as described in the installation guide.
2. Create an implementation application based on the Common Data Model. The new application inherits the components of the Common Data Model. For more information about creating your application, see the Implementation Guide.
3. Use the Data Portal to review the available data objects and case types with the imported sample data.
4. Compare available objects to your required data.

   Map your application data to the Common Data Model. Use the Common Data Model entities as much as possible.

5. Extend the data objects in the Common Data Model to accommodate your application's data requirements.

   Maintain the design used by the Common Data Model. 

6. Document your data model to enable the developers who maintain it.
