  Some of the object definition properties of Line Item, such as how to customize the display of specific fields, are controlled by System Setting screens. For more information, see Setting up Invoice Line Items.
• Involved—Allows end users to keep track of various involved parties associated with a Project. An Involved record is automatically available as a system Block in Object Views for Custom Objects. This System Object definition is always related to a Custom Object.

• User—An account created for a specific person who uses TeamConnect. Users can be members of Groups, and can have Rights assigned to them or from a group in which they are a member. Each user has their own password to log in to TeamConnect, which is first specified in their user account (accessible by the Administrator only) together with the username and rights.

The corresponding object records are available in the end-user interface—except for user and group account records, which are only available to users with administrative rights.

The Involved object record is available only through the parent custom object records. For details, see Unique Custom Object Types.

You can customize certain properties of system objects, such as their appearance, custom fields, and search views. However, you cannot modify the Group and User administrative system objects.

You cannot delete system object definitions or create new ones--except for Involved whose object definitions can be deleted from their parent custom object definitions.

System objects are represented by their own main tables in TeamConnect's object model, such as TAccount or TTask. The exceptions are User and Group objects, which are represented by the YUser and YGroup tables respectively. For details, see Object Model: Read This First plus the additional reference tables mentioned in that topic.
