## Properties

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Caption | Resource Skill |
| DataClassification | CustomerContent |

## Fields

Explanation: the field's ToolTip in the code; without one, the ToolTip of a page control bound to the field (marked via the page); without that, its Caption (marked caption) when that differs from the name.

| No. | Name | Type | Explanation | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Type | Enum "Resource Skill Type" | Specifies the skill type associated with the entry. | enum [Enum 5956 "Resource Skill Type"](../enum/5956.md) |
| 2 | No. | Code[20] | Specifies the number of the involved entry or record, according to the specified number series. | TableRelation [Table 5904 "Service Item Group"](../table/5904.md), [Table 5940 "Service Item"](../table/5940.md) (if (Type = const(Resource)) Resource."No." else if (Type = const("Service Item Group")) "Service Item Group".Code else if (Type = const(Item)) Item."No." else if (Type = const("Service Item")) "Service Item"."No."); NotBlank |
| 3 | Skill Code | Code[10] | Specifies the code of the skill you want to assign. | TableRelation [Table 5955 "Skill Code"](../table/5955.md) (Skill Code); NotBlank |
| 4 | Assigned From | Enum "Resource Skill Assigned From" | Specifies the object, such as item or service item group, from which the skill code was assigned. | enum [Enum 5958 "Resource Skill Assigned From"](../enum/5958.md) |
| 5 | Source Type | Enum "Resource Skill Source Type" | — | enum [Enum 5957 "Resource Skill Source Type"](../enum/5957.md) |
| 6 | Source Code | Code[20] | — |  |

## Keys

- Key1: Type, No., Skill Code (clustered)
- Key2: Skill Code, Type, No.
- Key3: Assigned From
- Key4: Source Type, Source Code
- Key5: Assigned From, Source Type, Source Code

## Triggers

OnInsert

## Relations

- lookup page [Page 6019 "Resource Skills"](../page/6019.md)
- No.: TableRelation [Table 5904 "Service Item Group"](../table/5904.md) (conditional)
- No.: TableRelation [Table 5940 "Service Item"](../table/5940.md) (conditional)
- Skill Code: TableRelation [Table 5955 "Skill Code"](../table/5955.md)

## Pages and codeunits on this table

- [Page 6019 "Resource Skills"](../page/6019.md) (source table)

## Calls

From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete.

- [Codeunit 5931 "Resource Skill Mgt."](../codeunit/5931.md) (1 call: `OnInsert → AddResSkill`)

## Across versions

- Present in: BC23-30
- Changed (declaration) in: BC24, BC28

Source: AL metadata extracted from the code (names, ids, signatures, properties); no code bodies (D10).

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "table", object_name: "Resource Skill")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
