Adding a Field

If you created an empty object in Step 5: Define Parent and Child Objects (Repository), you need to create each field that belongs to the object. If you created objects using a predefined template, you can add new fields to the object if needed.

To Add a Field

1. Complete Step 5: Define Parent and Child Objects (Repository).

2. In the object tree panel of the Define Enterprise Object window, do one of the following:

   • To add the field to the end of the object’s field list, select the name of the object to which you want to add a new field and then click Add Field.

   • To add the field immediately following an existing field, select the field after which you want to add the new field and then click Add Field.

     The tree expands and a new field is inserted.

3. Do one of the following:

   • To accept the default name, press Enter.

   • To change the name, type the new name and then press Enter.

     For information about field name restrictions, see Master Index Wizard Field Name Restrictions (Repository).

4. Continue to Configuring Field Properties.
