MX00


MX00.1 - Attribute



Use Attribute (MX00.1) to define and maintain an attribute. An attribute
is either a Lawson-defined or user-defined category to track additional
information
in Lawson applications for reports and analysis.
When you use attributes, you load Lawson-defined attribute
definitions using Attribute, Element Load (MX100). This program loads several
attributes and elements.

MX00.2 - Element



Use Element (MX00.2) to define a name that identifies the element, a
description of the element, and attribute value parameters such as the data
used to define the attribute (Alpha, Numeric, and Date) and the field size
that determines the number of characters used to represent the attribute
value.
You assign an element to an attribute on Attribute (MX00.1).
Once you define values for the attribute, you cannot change the data
type or field size.

MX00.3 - Associate Attribute to Objects



Use Associate Attribute to Objects (MX00.3) to associate an attribute
with an object type. The object type identifies where the attribute can be
used. You can assign as many objects to the attribute an necessary.
On this form, you identify whether the object type is required. You
can also apply the object type to an object group.
