A CFGKEY (Configuration Key) is a specific data element that is used across AVEVA products against which specific values can be stored based on the project requirement.
The hierarchy of elements which make up a CFGKEY within the DICTionary database are as follows:

|
CFGGPW (Configuration Group World) |
is a top-level administrative element. |
|
CFGGRP (Configuration Group) |
is a grouping element to allow grouping of related items. A GFGGRP may also own CFGGRP. |
|
CFGKEY (Configuration Key) |
is the defined key. |
Configuration Values
The CFGVAL (Configuration Value) is the values set against a CFGKEY and used by other AVEVA products.
The hierarchy of elements which make up a CFGVAL within the CONFiguration database are as follows:

|
CFGSTW (Configuration Set World) |
is a top-level administrative element. |
|
CFGSET (Configuration Set) |
is the element that hold CFGVALs. CFGSET has a Precedence attribute, this is used to overwrite the CFGVAL of other Configuration DBs. |
|
CFGVAL (Configuration Value) |
is the value set against a chosen CFGKEY. |
