Block Group
The Block group is a type of transaction group that stores data vertically. Whereas, a Standard group stores the information horizontally in a single row. Block groups share many of the same features as the Standard group. They can be bidirectional, insert into a database, or simply update the database. All the rows in a Block group are associated with a single database transaction therefore the process of writing to the database is very efficient.
To create a Block group
- Create a new Block transaction group.
- Drag a tag folder into the Block Items section of the new transaction group.
- Select the item in the Block group, right-click and select Edit.
- Change the Name, enter the Target Name to anything appropriate, and configure the remainder of the group settings under the Action tab.
- Select the group, click Enabled and save the project to start the group.
