> This page shows a list of master data entries that was compiled as the result of one of these operations: navigating, searching, or cloning. Click the name of an entry to view or edit its attributes.

> This page always shows master data entries of a single type, but the selection of entries depends on how you arrived at this page:

> - If you arrived at this page by clicking a type of master data entry in the left pane of the Console or in the Master Data Entries Summary page, the table lists all the existing master data entries for that type. For example, if you chose the "Business Step" master data type, this page shows all the master data entries instantiated from the "Business Step" master data type.
> - If you arrived at this page by performing a search initiated from the Master Data Search page, the table lists all the master data entries found, based on the parameters of your search. When you perform a search, you must limit the search to a single type of master data entry, so this page always shows master data entries of a single type.
> - If you arrived at this page by cloning one or more master data entries, the table lists those master data entries.
