Bookshelf v8.0: Active Field

The Active Field and the Active Value user properties together determine whether a record is active. An active record can be updated. A record that is not active cannot be updated.

For a given business component, the Active Field user property specifies the field on the business component that is the active flag. The Active Value user property specifies how to interpret the value of the flag.


Value	The value of the Active Field user property must be the name of a field on the current business component, not enclosed in quotes. The named field must be the active flag for the business component. If the business component has the Active Value user property and its value is Y, or if the Active Value user property is not defined, then a record is active if the value of its active flag is Y. If the value of the Active Value user property is N, then a record is active if the value of its active flag is N. For example, the value of the Active Field user property on the Quote business component is Active. The Active Value user property is not defined on Quote. Thus a record is active if its Active field value is Y. Alternatively, the value of the Active Field user property on the Fund business component is Locked Flag. The value of its Active Value user property is N. Thus a record is active if its Locked Flag field value is N, that is, when it is unlocked.
Usage	You can inactivate this user property or modify its values. You cannot create more than one instance of this user property for a business component.
