Application

The application entity usually represents web applications whose users are administrated in nevisIDM.

nevisIDM itself is also administrated as an application.

When nevisIDM runs in multi-client mode, applications need explicitly to be assigned to clients to be available to users of those clients. The assignment is stored in the table TIDMA_CLIENT_APPLICATION shown below.
