EDITPROC
If the table you are creating requires an EDITPROC clause, specify the name of the edit procedure here. The default is not to use an EDITPROC clause. An edit procedure transforms data at row level within Db2® before presentation.
VALIDPROC
If the table you are creating requires a VALIDPROC clause, specify the name of the validation procedure here. The default is not to use a VALIDPROC clause. A validation procedure validates data at row level before it is added.
OBID value
Use this field, if necessary, to specify the integer for the OBID clause for the table you are creating. Db2® assigns an (internal) object identifier value to each Db2® object. There are circumstances where it is desirable to specify the value for a Db2® object instead of using the Db2-assigned value. An example is where there are two parallel Db2® subsystems, with the same objects defined in each, and where every matching object has the same OBID value.
Audit Options
Db2® provides 3 auditing options which determine the type of access to the table that causes auditing to be performed:
1. None
No auditing performed. This is the default setting.
2. Changes
Auditing performed when changes are made to the table.
3. All
Auditing performed when the table is accessed.
Data Storage Options
The encoding scheme for string data stored in the table. FM/Db2 uses the selected option when it generates the CCSID clause in the CREATE TABLE statement.
1. EBCDIC
String data encoded using EBCDIC CCSIDs. This is the default setting.
2. ASCII
String data encoded using ASCII CCSIDs.
3. UNICODE
UNICODE string data encoded using UNICODE CCSIDs.
Log data capture changes
Whether additional information is logged for INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE operations.
Slash (/)
FM/Db2 generates a DATA CAPTURE CHANGES clause in the CREATE TABLE statement.
(blank)
FM/Db2 generates a DATA CAPTURE NONE clause in the CREATE TABLE statement. This is the default setting.
Restrict drop of table
Whether the table cannot be dropped. You can use this option to prevent the accidental deletion of tables.
Slash (/)
FM/Db2 generates a WITH RESTRICT ON DROP in the CREATE TABLE statement.
(blank)
FM/Db2 allows the table to be dropped. This is the default setting.
