When using Advanced Logic or Visibility Condition for standard fields, you may wish to restrict based on the Level 1 Template or Level 2 Type of the associated record.

The syntax of the conditional statements refers to the typeid, which is the system's numerical value associated with each Template or Type.

Level 1 Template

In order to determine the typeid of a Level 1 template:

  • Go to the list of Templates on the Settings page.
  • Right-click on the name of the relevant template in the left-hand pane and select Properties
  • Within the address displayed it will list the numerical typeid for that Template:


Level 2 Type

In order to determine the typeid of a Level 2 type:

  • Go to the list of Types on the Settings page.
  • Right-click on the name of the relevant type in the left-hand pane and select Properties
  • Within the address displayed it will list the numerical typeid for that Type.
Important: Within the address it will be called statusid rather than typeid.
