Specifying a data type
You must specify a data type for each import field definition that you create as an InForm item path field.
To specify the data type of an import field:
- Click the appropriate button in the Data Type section.
The InForm Data Import utility issues an error if any of the following exist:
- An invalid integer field. An invalid integer field cannot be fully converted to an integer value. For example, 123$ is an invalid integer field.
- A string identified as a floating number that does not meet the specification for the CRF control for allowed number of digits before and after the decimal point.
- A string identified as a text control that is not within the defined size range for the CRF text control.
