Definition

Collective term for change objects with similar properties.

Use

You can control and monitor changes made with reference to one change number more precisely object type.

Examples

You can process the following object types with reference to one change number:

bill of material

task list

document

material

Dependencies

For the object types "bill of material" and "task list", you can control object changes more specifically. For example, you have the option of setting indicators separately for material BOMs, document structures, equipment BOMs, and so on, instead of setting them generically for all bills of material.
To do this, choose Edit -> Object sub-types
