We would like to use Google Analytics to understand how people use Insyt. It sets cookies and only runs if you accept. Rejecting changes nothing else on the site.
The kind of value a field can hold. Common types are text, whole numbers, decimals and dates. The type decides what you can do with the value. A field can look like a number and still be stored as text.
Example
Raket Parts gives customers 30-day payment terms. If a field holds the text "30 days" you cannot average it. Stored as the whole number 30, it can be compared with the actual average of 47 days.
Raket Parts B.V. is a fictional company created for Insyt.
