BusinessObjectHelper Contract

The BusinessObjectHelper (BoHelper) contract is similar to a business object contract but without a data source. You can use BoHelper to host utils functions that are used in different files and that don't require the implementation of the same function in each single business object. The name attribute in the BusinessObjectHelper root specifies the unique class name. Like in the case of a Business Object contract, the sub nodes in the BusinessObjectHelper contract are simple properties and JavaScript methods. The BoHelper contract doesn’t support the NestedObjects, nested ListObjects, and ObjectLookups sub nodes. This contract supports a single standard CreateAsync method.
