The Common Master is a unique feature in the SummitAI application that allows the Administrators to set most commonly used label names and drop-down values across all the modules. If there is a change or addition required in the label names or drop-down values, this feature saves the efforts of the Administrator to make the same changes in all the pages separately. In other words, it simplifies the customization process required to be done by the Administrators for most commonly used labels names and drop-down values. For example, a Tenant should be displayed in all the Service Catalogs. Instead of modifying the Tenant for all the Service Catalogs separately, the Administrators can modify the same in the COMMON MASTERS page and map accordingly. It makes the change available across all the Service Catalogs.
