This Action inserts a new record in the SDIAttribute table. It handles creation of sdc type, link type and adhoc type attributes for the primary sdc. It does not handle creation of template attributes (copied from template) or copy down attributes (copied from sdiattribute to link) as these are handled by the add and edit sdi actions. For SDC type attributes an attributeid or value is not expected as they are looked up from the master list. For link type if a value is provided then it will be used as the default value rather than the default value from the master list. For adhoc type a value is required.
