Customizing Data Types Catalog
The Global K-A Data Types catalog can be accessed in the Model page under Automation Mode. Changes made here will not affect existing fields, only those created onwards.
The field data type catalog can be accessed during field creation by toggling to the Data Types tab in the field creation dialog (see Creating a New Field). Alternatively, it can be customized after a field is created by selecting the field node in the field hierarchy and toggling to the Data Types tab.
