Composite types
When you access composite resources from a dictionary, each composite will have several types defined for it. Each type is used in specific situations in Microsoft Dynamics GP. The following table describes the composite types.
Type |
Example |

With full events |

Hint: In most cases, the IntelliSense will tell you what composite type is required for a specific situation.
