Configuring table columns

Note

This option pertains to the Hyperproof TPRM product line.

Each column in a table has an additional set of configuration options. Options may vary depending on the data type of the column. Column configuration options include:

  • Required - The column is mandatory for data entry.

  • Display name - Select column values from the table lookup in the catalog field.

  • Hide from table listing - Hide the column from the main table view, but show it in detailed views.

  • Hide field - Completely hide the column from all views.

  • Unique - Ensures that column values are unique across all rows, preventing users from entering duplicate values.

  • Recompute on duplicate - Recomputes values when auto-populate rules are set and a duplicate value is found.

  • Data sorting - Enables default sorting for the column. Select None, Ascending, or Descending.

To configure a table column:

  1. Access the table where you want to configure a column. See Accessing tables.

  2. Click the Configure button (Gear icon) next to the column.

    The Configure window displays.

  3. Make sure the Controls tab is selected.

  4. Configure the options below the Data Type field.

  5. Click Save.
