This is relevant when this DataSource is to be defined as an append DataSource (Type 'APPE').

This field contains the name of a standard DataSource to which this append DataSource is referenced. (The standard DataSource should exist in the system)

The field is filled automatically with the new name of the basic extractor no longer supports 1.2B BW.
