Attribute values and processing types

You can specify attributes in the modeling table. Attributes specified by the system cannot be edited, for example, Creation date. System attribute columns have a gray background.

The processing of an attribute value may change depending on the attribute type. For example, if you want to process an attribute of the Time date type, you can do this using the calendar displayed.

The following attribute types are available:

Date attributes

The calendar is displayed when you click in the cell containing the attribute value. For an attribute of the Time date type, you can select a time in addition to the date.

Time date
