Object Definition File

You can modify most elements of the Object Definition file using the Configuration Editor. The following can only be modified using the XML editor:

• Database type

• Date format

• Maximum field value

• Minimum field value

It is not recommended you change the database type, but if you modify the database type or date format elements, you need to regenerate the application to create the updated database scripts. This does not recreate the Systems or Code Lists scripts; that needs to be done manually.
