Customization of Data Types

The data types are defined as a string name and ID for the predefined data types. Whereas TIBCO MDM needs a large number of data types, both primitives and derived. You can customize the existing data types and add your own validation and formatting pertaining to the data type and screen (optional).

You can include the predefined data types in TIBCO MDM. The data types are not enterprise-specific. The predefined data types are File, String, Integer, Decimal, Custom Decimal, Timestamp, Date, Amount, and Boolean, Long, and URL. For more information on the predefined data types, see TIBCO MDM User's Guide.
