Tables: Overview

Tables can be created manually or imported in the form of text files. Then you can use them to validate field values and to translate field values.

 

When you are working with tables in the Administration module, you can:

• Create tables in system specifications, which you can then use for validating field values.

• Add, modify, and delete table columns

• Enter data in a table

• Import text files to use as tables

• Delete tables from the system specifications

 

Invoice-related tables have several uses, as well.

 

Table fields

Table fields are found on documents. DOCUMENTS can extract information from a table field like any other field. One example of a table field is a line item table on an invoice.

Sometimes table fields are referred to as "tables." The context of the topic should make it clear that this refers to tables in documents.

There can also be table field profiles on invoice profiles.
