Application is a pack of the VCS-records united by a common trait:  united by the same value in the application_id field. Applications are intended to hoard some businessworthy functionality that can be contributed into the system as a single entity. In fact, this is an individual system module that can be packed in the .SOP file in order to install it on other instances. For example, you can have your SimpleOne platform with the base functionality, and you can expand it by installing the ITSM, HRM, CRM and other applications that may be developed and delivered.
