Reverse Auction Defined. You probably think you have a good understanding of how most auctions are done. For example, you may have bid on a product you found on eBay. If another person wants the same item you want, she may bid higher than you to get it. Of course, if you still want the item bad enough, you may bid higher yet.
Custom Data Types: Ability to Create them in Setup. I would like to create my own data type in SalesForce. When we create a New Field, we have to choose from the built in options for example, Date, AutoNum, Checkbox, Picklists, text, lookup, etc.
For the Decimal or Numeric data types, SQL Server considers each specific combination of precision and scale as a different data type. DECIMAL(2,2) and DECIMAL(2,4) are different data types. This means that 11.22 and 11.2222 are different types though this is not the case for float.
