Reference codes

Introduction​

In Hubble some field input can be controlled to only accept a list of values in order to improve data quality. Such fields will be displayed in form of a dropdown, where the user can select the right entry, at the opposite of free fields.

Entries can be set in what is called Reference Codes in Hubble.

EXAMPLE
  • For example, in Hubble, transportation mode is linked to a Reference Code, and only 5 entries are available:
  • But comment is a free input field

We can distinguish 2 types of Reference Codes:

  • System codes: reference codes are pre-filled with entries, either because it's a Supply-Chain industry standard, either because it's used in Hubble logic. These pre-filled entries are common for all Hubble users, but it is still possible to add custom entries for your Company.
  • Custom codes: they are empty, and should be filled specifically for your business case.
tip

Some Reference Codes would accept some parameters in order to customize Hubble's behavior
