The Object Linking Object allows you to virtually link between different modules or objects within the application’s context, such as linking a vehicle to a contact person. Whilst you can use the Module-native Linking Object to link objects within Modules, this Object allows you to create non-constrained virtual links that can be used within the Advanced Query feature, or as data joins within your application.
