Determining the typeid

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.
