Options Tab for Request Types

The Options tab of the New/Copy/Edit Object Type dialog box for requests enables you to set additional options for the rules and behavior of the request type. When creating a new request type, the initial default values are set according to the Closest Functional Match selected in the General tab.

See About Request Type Options for further explanations of these options.
