List of logical properties
This list displays the logical properties of the selected entity.
The data displayed in the list is as follows:
Name |
Name of the graphical object or guide word for the field. This name is edited simply by clicking on the cell in the list. |
Description |
Description of the origin logical property if a logical origin is assigned. |
Type |
Data type of the graphical object or field. It should be noted that this type may be different (particularly in length) from the type of the origin logical property. |
To modify the logical origin of a graphical object or field, double-click a compatible logical property in the list of logical properties. A logical property is considered as compatible with the check if it is of the same type, but it can possibly have a different length (in case of numbers with decimals, the number of decimals must be identical).
