Metadata Manager extracts the data types for objects in the Domains and Column classes and stores them as properties of the objects. While extracting the data types, Metadata Manager changes the names of the data types to the names used by Metadata Manager.
For example, if Metadata Manager extracts a data type named “integer” in the data modeling tool, Metadata Manager converts this to name to “SQL_integer.” You may not see a match between the data type name in the data modeling tool and the corresponding name in the metadata catalog.
