I'm working on building out our Workday Business App around the CSDM model. I have mapped Workday as the core business app that provides our core Human Resource capability. But, there are sub business applications running on Workday (Workday FIN, Workday Payroll, etc.). CSDM white paper references relationships between business applications but the examples given don't match. Is it provides::provided by relationship between business applications or "uses reference attribute"? If the later... how do you build "uses reference attribute" relationship.
Also, are my business applications in reverse? Should all the sub business apps provide the business capability?

Christopher,
What the CSDM is referring to is driven by the Field "Architecture type" not the Relationships held in [cmdb_rel_ci]. If you have a Business Application configured as type = Platform Host - in your case Workday
- then on the other Business Application records you would set Architecture type to = Platform Application. When you do an additional mandatory field "Platform Host" will appear where you can select your Workday record.
