| Name | Description | Help | Technical Info |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tenant | Tenant for this installation. | A Tenant is a company or a legal entity. You cannot share data between Tenants. | c_cycle.AD_Client_ID numeric(10) Table Direct |
| Organization | Organizational entity within tenant | An organization is a unit of your tenant or legal entity - examples are store, department. You can share data between organizations. | c_cycle.AD_Org_ID numeric(10) Table Direct |
| Name | Alphanumeric identifier of the entity | The name of an entity (record) is used as an default search option in addition to the search key. The name is up to 60 characters in length. | c_cycle.Name character varying(60) String |
| Description | Optional short description of the record | A description is limited to 255 characters. | c_cycle.Description character varying(255) String |
| Active | The record is active in the system | There are two methods of making records unavailable in the system: One is to delete the record, the other is to de-activate the record. A de-activated record is not available for selection, but available for reports.There are two reasons for de-activating and not deleting records:(1) The system requires the record for audit purposes.(2) The record is referenced by other records. E.g., you cannot delete a Business Partner, if there are invoices for this partner record existing. You de-activate the Business Partner and prevent that this record is used for future entries. | c_cycle.IsActive character(1) Yes-No |
| Currency | The Currency for this record | Indicates the Currency to be used when processing or reporting on this record | c_cycle.C_Currency_ID numeric(10) Table Direct |

| Project Cycle | Identifier for this Project Reporting Cycle | Identifies a Project Cycle which can be made up of one or more cycle steps and cycle phases. | c_cyclestep.C_Cycle_ID numeric(10) Table Direct |
| Sequence | Method of ordering records; lowest number comes first | The Sequence indicates the order of records | c_cyclestep.SeqNo numeric(10) Integer |

| Relative Weight | Relative weight of this step (0 = ignored) | The relative weight allows you to adjust the project cycle report based on probabilities. For example, if you have a 1:10 chance in closing a contract when it is in the prospect stage and a 1:2 chance when it is in the contract stage, you may put a weight of 0.1 and 0.5 on those steps. This allows sales funnels or measures of completion of your project. | c_cyclestep.RelativeWeight numeric Quantity |
