Business name.

Add a more descriptive name to the source or target definition.

Description.

Add a comment or link to business documentation. These display in Repository Manager for the source or target definition. Adding comments or business documentation links to a source or target is an easy way to document its purpose. You can add or modify comments to any existing source or target.

You can enter up to (2,000 bytes)/K characters in the description, where K is the maximum number of bytes a character contains in the selected repository code page. For example, if the repository code page is a Japanese code page where K=2, each description and comment field can contain up to 1,000 characters.

Keywords.

Track flat file targets with key words. As development and maintenance work continues, the number of targets increases. While all of these targets may appear in the same folder, they may all serve different purposes. Keywords can help you find related targets. Keywords can include developer names, mappings, or the associated schema.

Use keywords to perform searches in the Repository Manager.
