Explanation

The structure of a record in the database is called the Record Type. Record Type defines the blueprint or schema that specifies what fields (data items) the record contains, their data types, and how they are organized. This is different from a Record Occurrence (actual data instance) or Data Item (individual field). The Record Type is the structural definition that all record instances follow.
