Summary

Completed

In this module, you learned about the different functional table types and their characteristics. For each of the table types, you learned which primary key to use, which types of pages are linked, and the different naming conventions that are used for tables.

A setup table only contains one record, and the primary key field is always blank. A master table is linked to a list page, which is not editable, and a card page. Usually, a supplemental table has only an editable list page linked.

Document tables have two linked tables: document header and document line. The primary key that is used in the header table is also used in the line table, but with an extra Line No. field.

Knowing the differences between the table types will help you develop your objects in your own extensions, similar to how you develop standard objects.
