Customer-defined data maintenance forms
The maintenance forms listed below contain the data types and data records for customer-defined data and DBLookups. These maintenance forms are hidden by default. They can be exposed by configuring security group permissions for the Client Data folder.
- Custom Data Type
- Defines the types of custom data that can be created and the column names. Names of custom data types and all columns within a custom data type must be unique and cannot be changed once a custom data type is created. Corresponds with the WB_CUSTOM_DATA_TYPE table in the database.
- Custom Data
- Contains custom data records that are created for one of the defined custom data types. Custom data records can be updated after creation. Corresponds with the WB_CUSTOM_DATA table in the database.
Note: Multi-field lookup is now supported when retrieving customer-defined data, allowing multiple field-value pairs to be specified in a single query operation. For example, you can include Number1, Text1, Text2, and a date range such asDate1 to Date2 in one lookup.
You can also create multiple maintenance forms based on WB_CUSTOM_DATA and WB_CUSTOM_DATA_TYPE with individually localizable fields. You can generate maintenance forms with unique field names even when these forms are created from the same table.
