• Key Concepts:
  Enumeration type is a data type in SAP Vehicle Insights that allows users to define a set of values for a field. It is used to limit the values that can be entered into a field, making it easier to maintain data integrity. Enumeration types are also used to create drop-down lists in forms and reports.
  
  How to use it:
  Enumeration types are created in the SAP Vehicle Insights system by defining the set of values that can be used for a field. Once created, the enumeration type can be assigned to any field in the system. When a user enters data into the field, they will only be able to select from the values defined in the enumeration type.
  
  Tips & Tricks:
  When creating an enumeration type, it is important to consider how many values will be needed and how often they may need to be changed. It is also important to consider how the values will be displayed in forms and reports.
  
  Related Information:
