DATAVIEW Information

For a dataview that CA Ideal accesses, the only DATAVIEW information whose specified value is used is UPDATE‑INTENT. You can specify Y (to allow updates) or N (to prevent updates). CA Ideal interprets any other value as N. If the DATABASE entity‑occurrence name is DATA‑DICT or UNIVERSAL, CA Ideal assumes a value of N (to prevent updates) for UPDATE‑INTENT.

CA Ideal uses the DATAVIEW attributes DBMS‑USED and ACCESS‑METHOD with values it supplies from other sources.
