Unclassified Objects

A fully registered AIM Workhub Object has at least one Identifier and at least one Class. Objects may exist without a Class but this usually only occurs as a transitional state during data import. For example, to store an Association between two objects it may be necessary for the AIM Workhub System to create an object on-the-fly before the full details about that Object have been imported. In a fully populated database unclassified objects would normally be regarded as an error and evidence of some problem with data import.

Unclassified objects are reported as if they are classified as UNKNOWN. The UNKNOWN class may also be used to search for unclassified objects.
