The purpose of this mapping is to define a heterogeneous set of record IDs. Simply a bunch of CRMIDs of records from different modules. This could be used to define a set of records to launch a mass operation upon or a set of records that must be excluded from some global process.

In concept, it is very similar to the Condition Query Mapping where you can retrieve a set of records from a query. The big difference is that this mapping easily mixes records from different modules and with no special condition that the query must fulfill, you just put the IDs, no fuss.

Obviously the set must be small or will get to complex to maintain.

The accepted format is:

<map>
  <records>
  <record>
  <id>1</id> if given, module and value are ignored
  <module>ModuleName</module>
  <value>EntityCustomNumberValue</value> we only search on the uitype 4 field
  <action>include</action> Include | Exclude | Group  The default action is Exclude
  </record>
  .....
  </records>
  </map>

You will be able to ask for CRMids in each action group and module if a given CRMid is in the group and also get a list of module names that have some CRMid in the recordset.
