1. Table •
Tables are the most fundamental objects in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. They store records
that are collected through pages, for example customers, sales, and inventories. These records are then presented to users through pages and reports. •
A table can be visualized as a two-dimensional matrix, consisting of columns and rows. Each row is a single record, and each column is a field in that record.
•
A table consists of table data and the table description. The table data contains the actual
records and their fields. The table description specifies the layout and properties of the table and the fields. •
The table description contains properties, triggers, fields, and keys.
