The loadtype determines the nature of the update to be applied. Valid values are as follows: The loadtype determines the nature of the update to be applied. Valid values are as follows:
- FORMAT_CAT. For updating Format Catalogs, the BUSKEY should be `FMTNAME START`. See [formats](/formats).
- UPDATE. This is the most basic type, and any updates will happen 'in place'. Simply provide the primary key fields in the `BUSKEY` column. - UPDATE. This is the most basic type, and any updates will happen 'in place'. Simply provide the primary key fields in the `BUSKEY` column.
- TXTEMPORAL. This signifies an SCD2 type load. For this type the validity fields (valid from, valid to) should be specified in the `VAR_TXFROM` and `VAR_TXTO` fields. The table itself should include `VAR_TXFROM` in the physical key. The remainder of the primary key fields (not including `VAR_TXFROM`) should be specified in `BUSKEY`. - TXTEMPORAL.

- BITEMPORAL. These tables have two time dimensions - a version history, and a business history. The version history (SCD2) fields should be specified in `VAR_TXFROM` and `VAR_TXTO` and the business history fields should be specified in `VAR_BUSFROM` and `VAR_BUSTO`. The `VAR_TXFROM` and `VAR_BUSFROM` fields should be in the key of the actual table, but should not be also specified in the `BUSKEY` field. - BITEMPORAL.

!!! Note !!! Note
The support for BITEMPORAL loads is restricted, in the sense it is only possible to load data at a single point in time (no support for loading multiple business date ranges for a single business key). The workaround is simply to load each date range separately. The support for BITEMPORAL loads is restricted, in the sense it is only possible to load data at a single point in time (no support for loading _multiple_ business date ranges for a _specific_ BUSKEY). The workaround is simply to load each date range separately. As a result of this restriction, the EDIT page will only show the latest business date range for each key. To modify earlier values, a filter should be applied.
