| − | ==Creating the Level 2 Types==
| + | '''Level 2 Types''' provide a method of delineating between different types of {{l2}} items. |
| | + | * ''Level 2 Types are the equivalent of [[Level 1 Templates|Templates]] at Level 1 and of [[Level 3 Types]] at Level 3.'' |
| | | | |
| − | In this article, you will create two types of [[Level 2 Entity|Level 2 entities]] – an invoice entity for use with the billable contracts, and an addendum entity for use with the '''Non-Disclosure''' contract.
| |
| | | | |
| − | 1. Click the '''Types''' link.
| + | Please see the '''[[Types]]''' Wiki article for information on how to configure both Level 2 and Level 3 Types. |

For example, perhaps only a lawyer can be assigned to produce the contract addendum.
