The views can be read write, even if thay include multiple tables (complex views)
In CrossModel, the Omnis Studio schemas can create not only tables, but also views.
The views schemas can have the same properties of the tables schemas, including connections.

- Mirror views, that create aliases of a table-view.
- Selection views, that apply a selection WHERE to the record of a table-view
- Manual views, in which tha view statement is inserted manually
- Complex views, that are formed by more than one table-view but are baing seen as a single entity that can be read, inserted and updated in the same way of a single table view.
