Types & Categories

The Types and Categories Page in CLASS is the place CLASS administrators with the correct permissions can edit Standard Field Options. 

To find this page an admin should Select System Settings / Types & Categories. 

Note: Any changes to Types & Categories may not be reflected until you next log out and in again.

Permissions for Types & Categories Access

CLASS users should note, the full Types & Categories can only be accessed by the Role “Advanced Administrator”. When you click Types & Categories full access means there should be over 90 fields to edit. If you only have around 15-20 fields listed, you are probably only a Regular CLASS “Administrator”. Contact Helpdesk to discuss what you need to know to be upgraded to Advanced Administrator.
