# SX Configuration

## README

# SX Configuration

This skill provides templates and validation rules for generating Protheus data dictionary configuration scripts: SX2 table headers, SX3 field definitions, SIX indexes, SXG field groups, SXA form folders/tabs, SX1 report parameter questions, SX5 generic tables, SXB standard F3 lookup queries, and SX7 field triggers. It covers required field values, naming conventions (3-char aliases, `Z`-prefixed custom tables, `XX_FIELD` naming), share-mode semantics (`C`/`E`/`M`), and common pitfalls such as creation order (SX2 before SX3 before SIX) and hardcoded physical table names.

Activate this skill when the user is registering a new custom table, adding custom fields, defining indexes, grouping fields for cross-table validation, organizing MVC form tabs, setting up report parameter questions, creating a generic lookup table, or configuring an F3 query or field trigger. It does not cover programmatic READ access to the dictionary at runtime (`Posicione`, `TamSx3`, FW APIs) -- see `protheus-reference/sx-dictionary.md` for that.
