==Overview==
Each item in a Synthesis repository is identified by a unique record identifier called an ''object ID''. The same object ID is never generated twice; if an item in the repository is copied or duplicated, a unique object ID will be generated for the duplicate item.
 
Typical end users of the Synthesis applications rarely need to see a record's object ID; however, when you are learning how to use the Synthesis API or are developing applications for the API, the object IDs can be useful for helping you trace the response of a call and debug code.
 
In this topic, we'll cover the methods for locating the object ID of a record. The location of the object ID depends on the item you are working with.
 
== Displaying the Object ID ==
To display the object ID in a Synthesis application, choose '''File > Application Setup'''. Then click '''Other''' under the '''Synthesis Settings''' heading in the navigation panel. Select the check box for '''Display Object IDs'''.
 
 
===Projects===
The object ID of a project is displayed in two locations:
 
* The Project Properties window ('''Project > Management > Edit Project Properties''') displays the project's object ID at the caption bar of the window.
 
* The Manage Projects window ('''Project > Management > Manage Projects''') displays a column containing the object IDs of each project in the database.
 
 
===Resources===
The Resource Manager ('''Project > Synthesis > Resource Manager''') displays a column containing the object IDs of the resources.
 
 
===Xfmea, RCM++ and RBI System Hierarchy Items===
To display the object ID (also called "record ID") of a system hierarchy item, right-click any of the column headers in the System Hierarchy panel and choose '''Customize Columns'''. Select the '''Record ID''' check box.
 
 
===FMEA Items===
To display the object IDs of FMEA functions, causes, effects, controls and actions, right-click any of the column headers in the FMEA analysis and choose '''Customize Columns'''. Select the '''Record ID''' check box.
