This field type is meant to signify the table to which the specified record relates.

The Record Class field is created for the table at the moment when the new inherited one is created. Initially, when creating a new root table (without any parents), the newly created table will not have this field.

Type of the stored data – ID. Size of the stored data – Big Integer.

Example of usage

  1. The Task table and its child table, the Incident table, have several records.
  2. When you look over a task list, you can find incidents among the mass of the tasks.
  3. For your purpose, you need to find only incidents while being in the Task table context.
  4. To do this, you can filter these records based on the Record Class field.

The Record Class field is a system field. It is always read-only and inaccessible for editing.
