Date and Time: A timestamp value for storing dates and times (i.e. an event start, office opening hours).
Number: Integers and/or Floating Numbers, for storing integer SKUs, quantities, prices, etc.
Boolean: For storing values that have two states, e.g., yes or no, true or false etc.
Location: Coordinate values and street addresses for storing the latitude and longitude of a physical location.
Color: For storing colors (with or without alpha channel).
