Table Guidelines

The definition of each of the table’s columns is outlined below.

Column Name – The name of the column/field in the database table.
Type – The column’s SQL data type. Types starting with a “b” are Viewpoint defined data types.
Importable – The field is available for import.
Default Available – Indicated if a programmatic default value is available for this field. Defaults use the same logic as a posting program to determine a value.
Length and Scale – Indicates the format of the field.
Required – Indicates if the data is required.
A hard coded default value can be specified in IM Template; when importing files this value overwrites the imported value.
Note:
Use the Template Detail tab in the IM Template form to add any additional fields for importing.
