A property is user-defined information bound to an object in QBank. Properties can be of different types. On top of that, a property can be configured to be hidden, set as read-only and marked as mandatory.
Properties can contain extra validation, like minimum number of characters for strings, a specific date range for dates or a minimum and maximum value for a number property.
The property types in QBank are:
- Textrow
