Creating Custom Asset Types that can be Imported from an Input File
A type (also called an object type) describes a kind of object that the registry can store. Besides defining the set of attributes that make up an object, a type includes several system properties that determine, among other things, whether objects of the type are visible in the user interface, whether objects of the type can be used with reports and/or policies, and whether they can be versioned.
CentraSite includes many predefined types. You can customize many of these predefined types and also create custom types of your own.
Note:  
Types are system-wide objects, meaning that they apply to all organizations. Consequently, all organizations within a particular instance of CentraSite use (or have access to) the same global set of types.
