$R\text{-}\mathrm{Mod}$-enriched categories are left $\underline{R}$-module objects of $Cat(\mathbb{A}\mathrm{b})$ and $Cat(\mathbb{A}\mathrm{b})$-enriched functors

We establish the feasibility of investigating the theory of $R\text{-}\mathrm{Mod}$-enriched categories, for any commutative and unitary ring $R$, through the framework of $\mathbb{A}\mathrm{b}$-enriched category theory. In particular, we prove that the category of $R$-$\mathrm{Mod}$-enriched categories, $Cat(R$-$\mathrm{Mod})$, the category of $\underline{R}$-modules inside $Cat(\mathbb{A}\mathrm{b})$, $\mathrm{LMod}_{\underline{R}}(Cat(\mathbb{A}\mathrm{b}))$, and the category of $Cat(\mathbb{A}\mathrm{b})$-enriched functors, $Fun^{Cat(\mathbb{A}\mathrm{b})}(\underline{\underline{R}},Cat(\mathbb{A}\mathrm{b}))$ are equivalent.
