Federated tasks lists: Common task attributes

In most cases, the names that are used for an attribute differ in saved searches and query tables. To ensure that query results can be federated, common task attributes provide a mapping of the saved search name to the query table name.

When you create a query table for Heritage Process Portal spaces in a federated environment, use the common attribute name for a property instead of the column name of the predefined database view. The following tables show how the common attributes map to the corresponding saved search names and query table names.
