Adding a Record Type

  1. In the Catalog Explorer, double-click the File Definitions node.

    The catalog's file definitions are displayed.

  2. Expand the relevant file definition, right-click Record Types and select New Record Type.

    The New Record Type dialog box is displayed.

  3. Type a name for the record type and click Add.

    The <file-definition-name> tab is displayed, and immediately applies the record type, as indicated by the record type selector displayed at the top of the pane.

  4. In the In Selected column, select each field to belong to the record type.
    Note: Selecting a parent node automatically selects all of its child nodes. If you do not want all of the child nodes, select the parent node for a second time to deselect child nodes.
  5. Click Save to Catalog.

    The record type is saved. Next, you must apply a filter to the record type in order for it to be selected for use by an appropriate condition variable.
