Entry Type (&ENTTYP)

For each journal entry code there are one or more possible journal entry types that provide more detailed information about the entry.

You can use journal entry types for auditing events that occur between your source and target tables. For example, you can use a journal entry type to label each audit record with the event that occurred on your source table that caused the audit record to be written to the target table. This is represented by a distinct two-letter code.
