Introduction to the Code Library

The Code Library, otherwise known as a Lookup Table is where the values in most of the drop downs can be found, updated and added to.

There are a limited number of Code Libraries that should NOT be Modified.
These are marked as being underlined in the Code Library list.

The Code Libraries that cannot be modified are:

  • Element Types
