You can introduce Record Types for Custom Objects in Salesforce. Although this isn't a decision to be taken lightly, circumstances may dictate that there's no better option than implementing Record Types on your custom object - such as needing to provide different page layouts for different users by Profile, or perhaps needing to have different picklist selections on fields, based on different types of custom object records. In this lesson, we work through how and when to create Record Types on Custom Objects.
Now that we have implemented Record Types, it's now time to assign page layouts by profile and Record Type.
