CRITICAL

Changes made to the RMS can significantly alter the underlying Framework ECM database. Please consult with Insula Software before making changes.

All fields in Framework ECM are grouped together by a commonality. These groups are called tables. The RMS Table screen allows for the creation, modification, and deletion of these tables.

The data availability is stored using an SQL database and, thus, the data is stored in an SQL table. A single database can house hundreds of tables, each playing its own unique role in the database schema. SQL tables are comprised of table rows and columns. Table columns are responsible for storing many different types of data, like numbers, texts, dates, and even files. There are many different types of table columns and these data types vary, depending on how the SQL table has been created by the SQL developer. A table row is a horizontal record of values that fit into each different table column.

The RMS Table screen is the physical table in the Framework ECM database.
