# NumericType

Fields with this property have optimized matching speed for numeric values. Type `True` to store the associated PropertyFieldCSVs fields, which contain numeric values, in a fast-look-up table in memory to optimize matching of the fields when using `FieldText` specifiers.

Any numeric-type field can contain a comma-separated list of numbers. The Content component stores each of these values as a numeric value for this field, for this document.

NOTE: You cannot configure a field with more than one numeric-based field type concurrently. Numeric-based types include NumericType, NumericDateType, MatchType, ParametricRangeType, ReferenceMemoryMappedType, and ParametricType when the `ParametricNumericMapping` configuration parameter is set to `True`.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | `MyProperty`
Example: | `NumericType=True`
See Also: | CountType MatchType NumericDateType NumericIntegerOnly NumericNormalMaxMem Property PropertyFieldCSVs

NOTE: If you change this setting after you have indexed content into the Content component, you must reindex the content, unless you have set `RegenerateNumericIndex` to `True`.
