## Relations

- lookup page [Page 7500 "Item Attributes"](../page/7500.md)

## Referenced by

5 fields in 4 objects relate to this table (TableRelation or CalcFormula).

- [Table 7501 "Item Attribute Value"](../table/7501.md): Attribute Name, Attribute ID
- [Table 7502 "Item Attribute Translation"](../table/7502.md): Attribute ID
- [Table 7505 "Item Attribute Value Mapping"](../table/7505.md): Item Attribute ID
- [Table 7507 "Item Var. Attr. Value Mapping"](../table/7507.md): Item Attribute ID

## Pages and codeunits on this table

- [Page 7500 "Item Attributes"](../page/7500.md) (source table)
- [Page 7503 "Item Attribute"](../page/7503.md) (source table)
- [Page 7507 "Filter Items - AssistEdit"](../page/7507.md) (source table)

## Extended by

- [Table extension 30112 "Shpfy Item Attribute"](../tableextension/30112.md)

## 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 43 "Language"](../codeunit/43.md) (1 call: `GetTranslatedName → GetLanguageCode`)
- [Page 7501 "Item Attribute Values"](../page/7501.md) (1 call: `OpenItemAttributeValues → (object)`)

## Across versions

- Present in: BC23-30
- Changed (declaration) in: BC24-25, 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: "Item Attribute")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
