# Manage Objects

The "Manage Objects" tab gives access to the part of the RIB interface that manipulates objects. An object is a collection of information pertaining to one of the classes in the repository's data model. New objects can be created or imported, and objects already in the repository can be edited, viewed, deleted, or have their approval status changed.

Click on the "Manage Objects" tab, and the list of classes in the repository's data model will be presented in a drop down menu. Choosing a class to work with will start the Object Browser. See help documentation on Manage Objects / Object Browser for more information.
