Your custom apps can be even more powerful and relevant with the addition of record types to custom objects. With Winter ’06, administrators can differentiate page layouts and picklist values by record type on custom objects, just like standard objects. The addition of this popular feature to custom objects allows administrators at complex enterprises with multiple products, processes, and business scenarios to tailor the Salesforce experience for different user groups so that they can work more productively and effectively.

This feature is available in Enterprise and Unlimited Editions.
