Table types

When you define a table, you must specify the kind of table it is. Infor Public Sector supports these table types:
Table type Description
Attachment Link Table Defines a table that will be used to link attachments to records in a selected table.
Code Table Defines a table that will store identification codes used to validate data, such as contact type codes, street suffix codes, or pay type codes.

Infor Public Sector automatically adds eight columns to a code table: ADDBY, ADDDTTM, CODE, DESCRIPT, EFFDATE, EXPDATE, MODBY, and MODDTTM.

Link Table Defines a linking table for many-to-many relationships between two other tables.

Infor Public Sector automatically adds four columns to a link table: ADDBY, ADDDTTM, MODBY, and MODDTTM.

Table Defines a standard database table.

Infor Public Sector automatically adds five columns to a standard table: ADDBY, ADDDTTM, MODBY, MODDTTM, and a primary key column that is named after the table name, such as MYTABLEKEY.

View Used to create a business object that will interact with a view in your database. The Schema Manager doesn't create the actual view, so you must create it in your database application manually.
Note: Views are not supported in multi-tenant environments.
