Resource Management Attributes

This table shows the attributes that appear when you add or update a Resource (People, Thing, or Organization), Role, or Structure or when you create a view against these objects.

If you are upgrading from an earlier release of Resource Management and had data in a table, for example, the RD30 web user record, the conversion program brought over your existing data.

Most attributes in this list are stored in the LDAP directory; the few exceptions are noted.
