Each Attribute contains a particular type of information.  Each type is a separate Attribute Type.

 

A different value editor is provided for the different Attribute Types in the Item Attributes Pane to make entry easier and more accurate.

 

The different Attribute Types are:

·Date
·Date+Time
·Info Item
·Form
·Money
·Number
·String
·Time
·Yes/No
·Data

 

Note: The String, Number and Money Attribute Types allow direct entry of the value, without a specialized value editor.  For these Attribute Types, you are allowed to enter data that does not match the type (a good example is entering 56 bps for a Number Attribute Type value).  For Attributes using the Number and Money Attribute Types, Ultra Recall will use the leading numeric part of the value for search and sorting purposes.
