Chapter 5 - Item Properties Number Item Subclass Properties
Restrictions
Restrictions of an item are the valid values of that item. When the Interpret as
value is defined as Character, the Restrictions property is specific to the
Character value and is not available as an option for a Binary value.
Depending on other Item Subclass settings, the Restrictions property can be
set to Value, Character, or Range.
Refer to Chapter 6 - Item Restrictions for detailed information about item
restrictions.
Restrictions > Ignore case
By default, restrictions are case-sensitive. To enable or disable the Ignore case
property of the Restriction, choose from one of the following options:
Property Description
Yes Ignore case of restrictions in item type properties.
No Do not ignore case-sensitive restrictions.
For example, if Ignore Case = Yes and the restriction Value is
Ft, the data
values ft, fT, Ft, and FT are all valid.
Restrictions > Rule
This setting indicates whether you are going to include or exclude the criteria (as
"valid" or "invalid") specified for the restrictions.
Value Description
Include Includes the restriction values as valid data.
Exclude Excludes the restriction values as invalid data.
National language
All non-international versions have the default National language value set to
Western. Expand the National language property to define the Data
language.
When the Interpret as value is defined as Character, the National language
property is specific to the Character value and is not available as an option for a
Binary value.
