When is it necessary to create an Information ENTITY?

Creating an Information ENTITY is highly relevant when you want to manage specific data within your application effectively. In this context, when you want to add a button to create a new TrainingEvent, you are engaging with an event-driven scenario where this entity acts as a defined structure to hold information about the TrainingEvent.

An Information ENTITY in Mendix is typically used to represent a specific object or concept within the application's data model, allowing developers to define the attributes and behaviors associated with it. By implementing this entity, you ensure that the data related to the TrainingEvent is correctly modeled, making it easier to manage operations like creation, updates, and interactions with the user interface.

In contrast, options that imply authentication (user login), administrative functionalities (editing user roles), or reporting functions do not inherently necessitate the creation of a dedicated Information ENTITY. Those functionalities might involve existing entities or simple interactions with the data that don’t require a separate entity definition. Creating an Information ENTITY is particularly essential in the context of adding a new object type, which is the case with a TrainingEvent.
