''Subobjects'' are subtables or 1-to-many (1:M) tables within IMSMA items. They are used for data when an item may have more than one of something. For example, the item ''Activity'' includes the subobject ''Ordnance'' because in an activity more than one Ordnance may have been found and/or destroyed. Subobjects are normally displayed in a table on the Data Entry Form and on the item’s Summary window. You can run searches for these subobjects as you can for any other data in IMSMA.

Subobjects are subtables or 1-to-many (1:M) tables within IMSMA items. They are used for data when an item may have more than one of something. For example, the item Activity includes the subobject Ordnance because in an activity more than one Ordnance may have been found and/or destroyed. Subobjects are normally displayed in a table on the Data Entry Form and on the item’s Summary window. You can run searches for these subobjects as you can for any other data in IMSMA.

For example, you can search for the following subobjects:
