Displays a report of all properties overridden on Data Elements in derived Content Types.

Remarks

The Property Overrides report provides a comprehensive summary of all property overrides applied to Data Elements across the current Content Type and its descendants. Property overrides allow you to customize inherited data elements for specialized document types, enabling flexible adaptation of extraction, validation, and presentation logic.

This report helps users audit, review, and manage property overrides, ensuring that customizations are intentional and maintainable throughout the Content Type hierarchy.

  • Kind: The type of Data Element (e.g., Field, Section, Table).
  • Property Name: The name of the overridden property (such as Required, Visible, or Display Name).
  • Override Count: The number of Content Types where this property is overridden.

Usage Guidance
