ITEM_DEPENDENT

 

The item_dependent category defines dependency relationships among data items within a category. Each data item on which a particular data item depends is specified as item _item_dependent.dependent_name. For a data item to be considered completely defined, each of its dependent data items must also be specified.

The DDL for the item_dependent category is given in the following section.
