-Entities (Identities, Roles...) in CzechIdM contain a set of basic attributes which can deal with most of general situations. However, due to the fact, that the implementation needs vary, it often happens that there is not enough basic attributes. Therefore, the so-called extended attributes (EAV) can be added to important entities in GUI.

 ===== EAV Forms ===== ===== EAV Forms =====
-To be able to add an attribute to an entity, a **form** must be set up first. The form can be imagined as a set of extended attributes of an entity. There can be more forms for one entity (Identity, Role...), and thus the extended attributes can be logically divided according to them. Every entity that supports EAVs always has default form defined after CzechIdM installation. Tt has no EAVs at the beginning, administrators can create them. +To be able to add an attribute to an entity, a **form** must be set up first.
