Property that maps to attributes set up in the gsc_instance_attribute table in the Dynamics Repository. Use this property to change the behavior of generic objects. For example, If you have a generic object that you want to behave differently for a creditors system and a debtors system. you can use this property to determine the functionality for the specific instance of the generic object. That is, is the object being used in the creditors system or the debtors system.

Data type: CHARACTER

Notes:

Read and Write.
The mapped value is used for the container and all contained objects.
The property is posted to the program using either the menu option the program was run from or coded in a program if the program was run from a button and so on. As a result, some of these properties are owned by the system and cannot be maintained or deleted by users.
When security is applied, for example field-level security, they can be defined globally, for a specific product, product module or to an individual program level. The RunAttribute property is a level below the program level that permits security settings per instance of a program.
