Indicating how aggregate columns should be treated.

Possible Values

Data Type

string

Default Value

"Ignore"

Remarks

Aggregate columns are the columns that will appear on base tables which aggregate all of the data contained within child collections. Because these columns include all the data of a child collection, they can become very large. In some situations, such as writing the data to an offline database, it may be advisable to set AggregateColumnMode to either Ignore or List. The data in child tables can still be retrieved by setting IncludeChildTables to true. Setting AggregateColumnMode to List will still cause aggregate columns to be listed for use with inserts and updates.
