Child Elements

Element	Type	Description
Column	Column	A specification of the properties of a column of the database.
BitmaskPosition	xs:integer	An integer designating the position assigned to the column. Its value will vary from 1 to the maximum number of columns. Two columns cannot have the same BitmaskPosition value.
ColumnName	xs:string	A string that specifies the name of a column in the database.
IsVisible	xs:integer	An integer that specifies whether the column can be viewed, expressed as a Boolean value (section 2.2.2.1).
IsArchivable	xs:integer	An integer that specifies whether the column can be archived, expressed as a Boolean value.
IsPivotable	xs:integer	An integer that specifies whether the column can be rotated to rows, expressed as a Boolean value.
ColumnType	xs:integer	An integer that specifies the type of column. Its value will be one of the constants defined in Column Types (section 2.2.2.11).
Units	xs:string	A string that specifies units, or the NULL value. The string can be either "ms", for milliseconds, or "KB", for kilobytes.
AggregationCollection	AggregationCollection	A specification of a group of aggregations.
Aggregation	Aggregation	A specification of an aggregation, which is a set of objects in the database.
Pivot	xs:string	A string specifying a column name, which can be used for grouping of rows. If used, the associated AggregateFunction will be applied to the values of the current column.
AggregateFunction	xs:string	A string that specifies an aggregate function, which performs a calculation on rows in the column.
