Today one of my colleague has asked me the difference
between Crossover domain and Table domain. He was confused and indeed he mixed
up them both.
this is how I explained him.
First of all, as the names suggests, both have major
differences in itself.
Table Domain:
1.
It’s a list of value to show you all values in table
2.
We can populate only one field with one table
domain.
3.
and yet, definitely we can re-use it as many
times as we require.
4.
for Table domain, we don't need to know about
the target application, can b use anywhere.
5.
table domains dynamically update its values, as they
looked up table updates.
6.
for instance, in users’ application to create a
new user. As we press lookup button, we see a list of persons’ table. And it
updates automatically as the person’s records updates, insert, delete.
Crossover domain:
1.
It’s another type of domain to be use as lookup.
It not only just lists us domain values but we can populate as many field as we
require from source application to this (destination).
2.
for crossover, we must know target application
and his field names to populates.
3.
Each field has to be mapped with source and
target fields at the time of create a crossover domain.
4.
for example, we are creating a new user, when we
select person from crossover domain, it populates other records as well
automatically. We can use this to copy records/values from one application to
another.
5.
We also can use relationship to drill child
levels.
