Creating New Columns
TeamDesk system allows you not only to edit records in tables but also to extend tables by adding new columns to them. To add a new column:
Click Setup link at the top right corner of the window.
Select a table you need.
From the setup menu select Columns > Create a new column. The system will display the New Columns form:
Use the form fields to specify titles and types for new columns:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Column Name | In the Column Name field enter a text that will be used as a column title. |
| Column Type | From the Column Type list select a necessary format for data stored in the column (to learn about available column types, see the Column Types section). |
When finished, click Save to add the columns into the system; click Cancel to discard changes.
When adding new columns you may also use the Suggest Columns button and the system will suggest you the columns that are commonly used for a particular data set based on the table contents.
After you have finished, the system will add new columns to a table. To view the result, click the Exit Setup reference at the right top of the window.
