There are many additional properties of a Field object that drive its behavior at runtime. The following table describes the most important Field properties:
Field Property |
Description |
---|---|
Join |
References a Join object definition to use for a single value field. If this property is empty and the field is neither a calculated nor a multi value field, the base table of the business component is used by the field. |
Column |
The column in the joined or base table to which the single value field refers. |
Calculated |
When set to TRUE, the field is a calculated field and must have an expression in the Calculated Value property. Examples for calculated fields have been provided earlier in this chapter. |
Calculated Value |
The expression to be computed for a calculated field. |
Disable Sort |
When set to TRUE, sorting on the field is not possible. |
Force Active |
When set to TRUE, the SQL statement generated at runtime will always include the column referenced by the field... |
