  • Formatting was changed.

When an Ultra Format Definition is updated, the system automatically converts, or updates, persistent data by default when it is accessed, in order to reflect changes. You can either completely disable this automatic update or enable it for only a selection of formats. You can also set default values for added fields.

SettingDescription

Convert

Select for which UDR types to enable conversion. There are two options:

  • All - All formats are considered, regardless of the types listed (default).
  • Selected Only - Only the formats listed in this window are considered.

UDR Types

If you have selected to convert Selected Only in the Convert drop-down list, you need to add UDR types in this section. 

Field/Value section (Default Values)

If you have added UDR types in the UDR Types section, it is possible to add default field values of the selected UDR type(s). This may be useful if fields are added to the format, or the type of an existing field is changed. The latter case is especially useful since the old field values are reset if the types are not interchangeable.

Note
titleNote!

It is not possible to assign values to old, already existing fields. This can be configured but will not take effect.
