 +The Internal repository option identifies a repository as being used internally by TapeTrack or for an administrative workflow.
 +
 +When set to True:
 +  * The repository may be hidden from applications or screens that only show normal operational repositories.
 +  * It remains a valid repository in the TapeTrack database.
 +  * Tapes can still be moved into and out of it where the application or process supports it.
 +  * It does not automatically change movement, confirmation, slotting or Next Repository behaviour.
 +
 +Typical uses include temporary holding locations, processing queues or system-managed repositories that ordinary TapeTrack Lite or Checkpoint users should not select.
 +
 +^Setting ^Effect^
 +|False |Normal operational repository displayed by applications|
 +|True |Internal-purpose repository that may be omitted from some applications|
 +
 +For example, a temporary processing repository such as TEMP could be marked Internal so administrators can use it in TapeMaster without presenting it as a normal tape location in every client application.
 +
 +The precise documented behaviour is that an internal repository “should not be displayed in all applications”; it does not guarantee it will be hidden everywhere.
