General Parameters – Types / Global Lists
Purpose
The Types / Global Lists area centralizes reusable definitions that are shared across all UNEEVO modules.
These lists ensure consistency, standard classification, and unified data structure throughout the entire system.
Types are used by People Management, Projects, Sales, Operations, Financial Components, and Resource Management, serving as foundational values for dropdowns, validations, categorization, and automation.
