list of possible table and field types

75 Views

Hello, experts,

My task is to write an xml parser for the repository metadata exported from MDMv7.1 and I cannot find the full list of possible values for the types of tables and fields which I can expect in exported xml document. I don't have direct access to the MDM server to play with different combinations. Could someone suggest me any resource to study?

the following is an compressed xml snippet from my customization:

<Repository mdmVersion="7.1.02.59" description="SAP MDM 71500 Test Repository V.10.06.04.1" familyField="" portSequence="">
   <Language name="English [US]" language="eng" country="US" inheritance="###" attr="eng_US"/>
   <Table code="MDM_MATERIALS" description="SAP Materials" type="MainTable" displayOrder="MDM_MATERIAL_NUMBER; MDM_DESCRIPTION" primaryDisplayField="MDM_ID" uniqueFields="" keyMappable="Yes">
      <Name eng_US="Materials"/>
      <Field code="MDM_ID" description="MDM record ID" type="AutoIDField" required="No" writeOnce="No" matrix="Ordinary" sortIndex="Normal">
         <Name eng_US="ID"/>
      </Field>
...

for example I've collected the following table types, but I'm afraid this list is far from complete:

-FlatTable

-HierAttrTable

-MaskTable

-NamedSearchesTable

-MainTable

-HierTable

-TupleDefinition

-QualFlatTable

-ImageTable

-TextTable

-CopyBlockTable

-HTMLTextTable

-PDFDocumentTable

-WorkflowTable

-SoundTable

-VideoTable

-ExtBlobTable

I'll appreciate any help,

thanks
