This section is for anyone working on the Genesis platform using GSF version 7.1 or earlier. It covers how to speciy fields in a separate dictionary and then how to add these files to your tables.
Fields are the individual elements that hold data in your application. For example, this could be a price, an instrument name, an instrument code, or a date. Every basic individual item of data you need has to be defined as a field.
A single field can be used in multiple tables.
You define your fields in a specific file that has the name application-fields-dictionary.kts.
So, if your application is called heracleum, the file name will be heracleum-fields-dictionary.kts.
