Object types
An object type contains metadata about a category
of object, such as a Risk or Process object.
From an Object Type page, you can view and access the following information:
- Property information about the object type (such as name, labels, description)
- Field groups, with their field definitions, that are included in this object type
- Allowed parent and child relationships (associations) to other object types
- Filters that are used to narrow the scope of data for this object type
- Dependent fields and pick lists that have been defined for this object type
- Fields for this object type that have been excluded from one or more subsystems
