Definition

With the data type you determine on the logical level, in which physical area the of the database (for ORACLE of the TABLESPACE) the table of active records (and the change log) of the DataStore object is to be stored. With the correct choice of data type your table is assigned automatically to the right area on the database when creating.

The most important data types (apart from the system data) are:

  • APPL0 master data
  • APPL1 transaction data
  • APPL2 organization and customizing data

With master data you are dealing with data where read access is often carried out, but where updates are only rarely executed. Transaction data is data that is often updated. Organization and customizing data is data that is entered when setting up the system, and is seldom changed later on.

Two additional data types can be used by the customer; USR and USR1. These are intended for user defined developments. The tables assigned to these data types are stored in a tablespace for customer developments.

Note: Please note that the data type only has an effect on saving the table for the database systems ORACLE and INFORMIX.
