Before you begin

Role required: admin

Procedure

1. Navigate to All > System Definition > Tables.
2. Select the table that you want use for storing dynamic attributes.
3. In the Table Columns related list, select New.
4. In the Type field, select Dynamic Attribute Store.
5. Complete the form by providing a Column label, Column name, and optional field attributes as necessary.
6. Select Submit.
   The dynamic attribute store field is added to the table.
7. Optional: Create a relationship between the dynamic attribute store field and a dynamic schema reference field.
   1. Select Use dependent field.
   2. Select the Dependent on field drop-down list.
   3. In the list of elements, select the dynamic schema reference field that you created by following the steps in Create a dynamic schema reference.
      Note:

      The reference field that the dynamic attribute store field depends on doesn’t need to exist on the same table. You can dot-walk to the dynamic schema metadata from the table that holds the dynamic attribute store field. For example, you might dot-walk from the Product field on your Sold Products table to the Products table to get its schema information.
