What is the philosophy of Practice Areas?

Hello,

 

I'm not sure about the role of the Practice Area's. LSD is coming with a numerous of OoB Practice Areas. My understanding of Practice Areas is, that those are defining the containers the different departments of the enterprise legal function can work. Therefor, for each Practice Area tables are associated which are building the workspace. This for Legal Request and Legal Matter. With that, and this is how I understand the documentation, data/records can be segregated between the different Practice Areas, - Fulfiller of Practice Area A is just seeing the Legal Request records of Practice Area A, but not of the Practice Area's B, C, D and E.

However, when I create a new Practice Area, no table derived from the Legal Request table is getting created nor that it is documented, that I need to create such manually. This is bringing me to the question, what is the intention of the Practice Area's? That we just use the out of the box ones? Or that we also can create our own Practice Areas, but then we need also to take care that associated tables are getting created?

 

Best regards

Jan
