Custom Record Type
For custom record types, fields on the body and subtabs (Numbering, Permissions, Links, and Managers) can be set on add or update of a new Custom Record Type. Fields on the Fields, Forms, Online Forms, Child Records, and Parent Records subtabs can only be set on update to an existing custom record.
For information about working with custom records types in the UI, see Creating Custom Record Types.
The custom record type record is defined in the setupCustom (customization) XSD.
Supported Operations
The following operations can be used with custom record types.
add | addList | delete | deleteList | getDeleted | get | getCustomizationId | getList | getSelectValue | update | updateList | upsert | upsertList
You can also use the asynchronous equivalents of SOAP web services list operations. For information about asynchronous operations, see SOAP Web Services Asynchronous Operations. For more information about request processing, see Synchronous Versus Asynchronous Request Processing.
