DataMart

An older TeamConnect feature providing a repository of data for reporting and analysis. This feature has been superseded by Data Warehouse.

DataSource 

An object that provides the means by which connection pooling may be neatly hidden and performed. A DataSource object is a factory for Connection objects. An object that implements the DataSource interface will typically be registered with a JNDI service provider. A JDBC driver that is accessed via the DataSource API does not automatically register itself with the DriverManager. This is the preferred way of communicating with a data source (for example, a database) and provides a good alternative to using a DriverManager.

Datastore Files

A datastore is a repository for storing, managing, and retrieving data.

Data Warehouse

An optional TeamConnect product. A repository of data gathered from operational data and other sources that is designed to serve a particular community of knowledge workers. In scope, the data derives from an enterprise-wide database, such as TeamConnect database, and meets your specific demands in terms of analysis, content, presentation, and ease-of-use. Typically, Data Warehouse is used for general reporting purposes.

If you are using Business Objects™ or other software to run reports and you want to include the information entered in a Custom Field for your reports, then you must make this selection when creating the custom field in an object definition.

Dazzle

A feature that enhances the visual appearance of the system, such as improving the logo or branding elements.

Debug Settings 

Refers to a scenario when an administrator changes a logger's logging level to Debug. This results in the highest possible detail level of output to the log file. Setting a logger's logging level to Debug is useful to help troubleshoot an issue but afterward you should change the logging level to Warning (or a less verbose setting) to maintain optimal system performance.

Default

A value or setting that TeamConnect automatically selects if you do not specify a substitute. For example, TeamConnect may select certain Categories as the default for your Records, or set a contact's address as the default.

The default directory in document screens is the directory the operating system searches unless you specify a different directory.

The default can also be an action that the program will take. For example, a user who creates an appointment is automatically (or by default) added as an attendee.

Deploy

The process of making a product available to customers is called product deployment.

Details

Additional, custom fields that may be created for various records. These fields are created to meet the specific needs of your organization. They are usually organized into groups on the screen, known as Detail Forms or blocks.

Detail Forms

Certain groups of Details created for a specific object Category. They can be displayed on a separate tab or as a section on the General tab of an object record.

Dispute

A disagreement or conflict, often involving legal or financial matters, managed within TeamConnect.

Docker Environment

Docker environment is an open-source platform that enables developers to build, deploy, run, update and manage containers. Containers are standardized, executable components that combine application source code with the operating system (OS) libraries and dependencies required to run that code in any environment

Document

A System Object definition used to manage files, folders, shortcuts, or hyperlinks in the TeamConnect Documents area. Documents are usually "attached to" other TeamConnect Records by uploading a file from the Documents page of a TeamConnect record.

Additional files necessary for customization of TeamConnect are also uploaded as Documents. These include XML files for Custom Blocks, Custom Actions for Java Rules, files included in Templates, and other files related to your customized system design.

Document Metadata

The information stored within a document record that provides details about its authorship, editing history, and creation.

Document Type

File type. For example, Microsoft Word document (DOC), text file (TXT), or JPEG image (JPG). When uploading files into the Documents area of TeamConnect, you specify the document type. TeamConnect then recognizes that file type and displays the appropriate icon.

As a solution developer, you can specify which file types TeamConnect is able to identify in the Documents area by adding them to the list of Document Types in the Document object definition.

Domain Controller

A Domain Controller (DC) is a server within a network that manages and enforces security policies for all devices in a domain, using a centralized database for authentication and authorization. It stores user credentials and controls access to resources within the domain, ensuring only authorized users and devices can connect to the network.

Dynamic Value

A value that is automatically generated based on a value that is entered or selected in another field, as opposed to a Static Value. Dynamic values are often used in TeamConnect Templates, Wizards, Unique IDs and names for custom object Records.
