Abstract

A computer-implemented system may include reception of an instruction to create an association for an element of a UI component model, determination of a first business object model of the association, determination of a second business object model of the association, definition of foreign key parameters associating an attribute of the first business object model with an attribute of an element of the second business object model, reception of an instruction to bind the element of the UI component model to a second attribute of the element of the second business object model, and creation of metadata in the UI component model associating the element of the UI component model with the second attribute of the element of the second business object model, the metadata comprising the foreign key parameters.
