Attribute allocation

An object type is a label that identifies the specific context in which an attribute can be used. You must associate each attribute with at least one object type. After selecting an attribute from within an application, only the attributes that were assigned with the appropriate object type for that application and process display. Object types are Lawson-defined.

Note: Ignore these object types: AMBKS, AMITM, APVND, ICLOC, ICITM, and POBUY. These object types are only used by Lawson-defined data mart attributes and cannot be assigned by users.

The table lists the attribute values currently available in Attribute Matrix:
