Architecture
Full Data Model support
YouDesign seamlessly understands the complete ServiceNow data structure, encompassing the Common Services Data Model (CSDM) and any custom extensions you've incorporated.
It offers unrestricted access to visualize all tables within the framework and relationships:
- many-to-many relationships (cmdb_rel_ci)
- Reference and Document ID
- Hierarchy (parent/child)
- Related Lists
Data Model Enhancements
The core YouDesign application is seamlessly embedded in ServiceNow without introducing data model extensions to the Common Services Data Model (CSDM). However, for those seeking to extend the data model, YouDesign offers extension packs such as UPMX and BPM. These packs provide the necessary extensions to the ServiceNow data model, facilitating a more tailored and enriched user experience.
