====== Internal ======

The [[object:repository|Repository]] Option ''Internal'' designates the [[object:repository|Repository]] to have an Internal purpose and should not be displayed in all applications.

===== Internal Options =====

  * ''True'': Is designated as an Internal [[object:repository|Repository]].
  * ''False'': Is not designated as an Internal [[object:repository|Repository]].

The Internal repository option identifies a repository as being used internally by TapeTrack or for an administrative workflow.

When set to True:
  * The repository may be hidden from applications or screens that only show normal operational repositories.
  * It remains a valid repository in the TapeTrack database.
  * Tapes can still be moved into and out of it where the application or process supports it.
  * It does not automatically change movement, confirmation, slotting or Next Repository behaviour.

Typical uses include temporary holding locations, processing queues or system-managed repositories that ordinary TapeTrack Lite or Checkpoint users should not select.

^Setting	^Effect^
|False	|Normal operational repository displayed by applications|
|True	|Internal-purpose repository that may be omitted from some applications|

For example, a temporary processing repository such as TEMP could be marked Internal so administrators can use it in TapeMaster without presenting it as a normal tape location in every client application.

The precise documented behaviour is that an internal repository “should not be displayed in all applications”; it does not guarantee it will be hidden everywhere.
