Using Save Type 3
Save Type 3 is a structured save type. It is primarily intended for use in driver files to create driver tables for file groups, but it can also be used in report files and file group utility files if appropriate. The file must be a managed file.
Save Type 3 creates a document reference table, which is a special kind of reference table that is managed within an Axiom file. Each time the data is saved to the database from the file, the table is re-created based upon the structure and data in the Axiom file. If a row or column is deleted in the document, it is deleted in the table. The table itself is never edited directly—all edits occur in the source file.
NOTES:
- Use caution when using Save Type 3 outside of driver files. Only use Save Type 3 if you want to manage the table completely within an Axiom file.
- If Save Type 3 is enabled for a sheet, no other save processes can be enabled for that sheet.
Document reference tables cannot be edited by using the Open Table in Spreadsheet feature. If you select to open a document reference table from the Table menu, Axiom Financial Institutions Suite opens the associated source file for the document reference table, instead of opening the spreadsheet table editor.

Table properties of document reference tablesBecause document reference tables can only be managed within a spreadsheet using Save Type 3, it is not possible to directly edit the table properties using the Table Manager. Many of the table properties that are configurable for data tables and reference tables do not apply to document reference tables. For example, document reference tables cannot belong to table types, and do not have a current period. Most of the remaining table properties are set for the document reference table by default and cannot be changed.
