Custom Attributes Dialog Box
For the latest version of Commerce Server 2007 Help, see the Microsoft Web site.
Use the Custom Attribute dialog box to add custom attributes to a data source partition. Custom attributes are application specific. Typically, the attributes that are common to all profile definitions or data stores are stored in the ClassDef or SourceDef table. However, there might be specific attributes that apply only to certain selected data source objects. For example, you can create a custom attribute to maintain the sort order of data sources or partitions on a data source, or to help you maintain consistency with other objects, such as member definition and source definition objects. Data source custom attributes are available only within the Profiles resource.
