!!!MAINTAIN LEXICONS

Lexicons are an application concept where a finite list of values is presented to the user in translatable language, for control over data entry.

The Maintain Lexicons (IMLN) screen shows [lexicons|LEXICON] supplied by [{$applicationname}] as well as [user-defined lexicons|USER DEFINED LEXICON].

The definition data for the Maintain Lexicon screen is stored in the [P2K_AM_LEXICON_NAMES] and [P2K_AM_LEXICON_VALUES] tables. 

;[Lexicon Name|LEXICON_NAME]:This field is used to define a name for the lexicon. Supplied lexicons are pre-defined with "X_" (e.g. X_APPROVAL_STATUS).
;[Lexicon Type|LEXICON_TYPE]:This field allows you to define the type of lexicon being defined.
;[Length|VALUE_LENGTH]:This field indicates the number of characters in the saved value of the lexicon. This does not affect the displayed value of the lexicon
