Legal Attributes Content Definition

The Legal Attributes content definition limits the number of available attributes to specification attributes that are legal on the selected object. It also enables additional limitation and sorting options.

  1. In the Column/Row Content definition list, select Legal Attributes.

  1. Select Include Attributes from Classifications to include attributes from classifications.
  2. Select Only non empty Rows/Columns to resolve only attributes with values.
  3. In the Maximum number of Rows/Columns field, enter the maximum number of attributes to be resolved.
  4. From the Sort on list, select the relevant sorting attribute, or leave the default selection of Attribute Name to sort the rows / columns alphabetically by attribute name. The list is composed of all description attributes in the system that have been made valid on the Attribute object type and have a validation base type of Number. The below screenshot shows a representative sample; the attributes will vary from system to system.

  1. Check Exclude if empty to include only attributes that have a sorting sequence entered. In other words, any attributes (even if they have values entered) without a value in the selected sorting sequence metadata attribute will NOT be displayed. If this box is not selected, the attributes without a value for the sorting sequence attribute will be included at the end in alphabetical order.
  2. Click OK when configurations are complete.
