==Type Settings==
 
 
 
Each type of [[Level 2 Entity]] has the following settings:
 
 
 
* '''Name''' - Display name for the Type.
 
* '''Display Order''' - The order in which the types are listed in the type combo box.
 
* '''Colour Code''' - A colour code used to display different types in the list view.
 
* '''Display as Tab''' - This Type will be displayed on a separate tab in the list of Level 2 activities at the bottom of a Level 1 record.
 
* '''Show External''' - This check box indicates if this type of activity should be shown to external users.
 
* '''Access Roles''' - Select the [[Role]]s that can create this type of activity.
 
* '''[[Template / Type Formulas|Level 2 Formula]]''' - A set of expressions used to calculate values when the Level 2 item is saved.  Similar to the [[Template / Type Formulas|Level 1 Template]] formula. ''(See [[Template / Type Formulas]])''
 
* '''Reminder Settings''' - The subject and content of the Reminder message.  These fields are only applicable if you have included reminder standard fields in your [[Level 2 Entity]].
 
* '''Follow Up Settings''' - The subject and content of the '''Follow up''' message.  These fields are only applicable if you have included follow up standard fields in your [[Level 2 Entity]].
 
* '''Restrict Contact Assignment by Contact''' - Allows you to restrict contact assignment for this Level 2 Type to named contacts.
 
::''For example, if the Level 2 Type is "Dissertation Review", and if there are 2 people in your company that look after all dissertation reviews you would specify them here by name so that only they could be assigned to level 2 records of this type''
 
* '''Restrict Contact Assignment by Role''': Allows you to define which contact [[Role]]s can be assigned to this Level 2 Type.
 
::''For example, if the Level 2 Type is "Legal Contract", you may wish to specify that only contacts with the role of "Lawyer" can be assigned to records of this type.''
 
  
==Reminder & Follow-up Settings==

* By ''default'', if there is no '''owner standard field''' - as is the case with calendar activities - then the last person to update the activity will be set as the owner.
 
 
[[Image:Reminder_n_follow_up_2.JPG]]
 
 
* If there is an '''owner standard field''' enabled, then the owner will be selected when creating reminders or follow-ups.
 
 
==Type Custom Fields==
 
You can define [[Custom Fields]] that will appear only on the Level 2 records of a given Level 2 '''Type'''.
 
* To define these fields, click on the '''Fields''' button next to the relevant Level 2 '''Type'''. Then create the desired custom fields in the normal fashion.
 
* The '''Display Order''' of the [[Custom Fields]] you create on a Level 2 Type works in conjunction with the '''Display Order''' on any general Level 2 [[Custom Fields]] that have been defined.
 
::''For example, if you have a Custom Field on a Level 2 Type with Display order of 15, it would appear between the global Level 2 custom fields with display orders of 10 and 20.''
