About Property rules

Standard properties in the Work- base class form the basis of work objects. This table identifies several of these in alphabetical order, ignoring the first two characters of the name.

Many are optional or not applicable to specific applications. A few of these are essential control elements present in every work object. Properties marked (Read-only) are computed by standard rules; don't set values for these properties in your application rules except in unusual situations where you intend to override the default computation.
