- General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
  The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) replaced the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and was designed to harmonise data privacy laws across Europe, to protect and empower all EU citizens' data privacy and to reshape the way organisations across the region approach data privacy. The enforcement date for all EU countries was 25th of May 2018. Norway, not being a member of the EU, transposed the EU regulations into its national law in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR.

Data Model Extension (DME)

Data model extensions allow you to extend and enhance the capabilities of the core data model.

This makes it possible to add or modify data elements, relationships and functionality, tailored for your specific business needs.

Note:

Data model extensions can only be added to the company database (not the system database).

In Business NXT, you can add a limited number of data model extensions without any additional cost.

The Data Model Extension tool is started from Business NXT Admin, and all settings described in the following sections are made in this tool.

In Business NXT, you find the link to Business NXT Admin under Management in the main menu, provided that you have been granted the relevant permissions.

Data model extensions can also be accessed through the GraphQL API, see DME in Business NXT API documentation.
