System Fields

Any field in the Repository can be nominated as a system field.
System fields have one special property:

• You cannot delete a system field. An error message will be displayed if you attempt to delete the field. The field must be changed to a non-system field before you can delete it.

LANSA is shipped with some standard System fields (named STD_xxxxx) and these are added to each new partition that you create.
Note: Any field can be moved from one partition to another by using the LANSA export/import facilities. The system field designation simplifies the process of creating standard fields in a new partition.
