Data Transformation Engine Type Designer Reference Guide

Chapter 9 - Partitioning Partitioning Types
Partitioning an Item Type using Restrictions
If an item has restrictions, you can partition that type, create mutually exclusive
subtypes, and divide the restrictions between subtypes. A restriction cannot
appear in more than one subtype of that item.
Example of Using Restrictions
You have new data that needs to be entered into the Type Designer. Each new
record contains the name of the employee and his or her department.
The Employee List type tree illustrates components of Record.
The following is the new data containing the name of the employee and the
department.
