Canonical business semantics

Business Catalog

The Catalog is the scalable entry point to ABCS business semantics. It organizes Domains, Business Objects and Capabilities without turning the global site navigation into a domain menu.

Domains

Enduring areas of business meaning and the first namespace segment for canonical identifiers.

Business Objects

Canonical business information, keys, fields, relationships and state used by capabilities.

Capabilities

The universal executable primitive: stable business actions such as submit, approve, release, resolve and confirm.

Domains

Procurement Reference

Purchase Requisitions, Suppliers, Purchase Orders and Receipts.

Finance Modeled

Invoices, Payments, Journal Entries and Payment Runs.

Sales Modeled

Customers, Quotes, Sales Orders and Returns.

Human Resources Modeled

Workers, Positions, Leave Requests and Payroll Runs.

Service Modeled

Customer Cases and Service Requests.

Logistics Modeled

Shipments, Deliveries and Inventory Transfers.

Manufacturing Modeled

Work Orders, Production Orders and Material Issues.

Projects Modeled

Projects, Project Tasks, Project Time and Project Cost.

Machine-readable catalog

The aggregate Draft 0.2 catalog is published from one logical model in both human-friendly YAML and machine-friendly JSON. Modular definitions remain under domains/; canonical payloads are validated with JSON Schema 2020-12.

Navigation rule: domains live inside the Catalog. The global header remains stable as the catalog grows.
