Keeper Admins can create custom types that fit the needs of your organization. Custom types can be created for all users, or users within specific roles. If you are not seeing a particular record type, or if you would like to have a new type of record, please ask your Keeper Administrator.

Record Types can be shared to other users, either direct sharing or within a Shared Folder, just like any other record. This now includes Payment Cards and Contact record types.
The Payment Cards stored in the "Identity & Payments" section of the vault is separate, and cannot be shared to other users. To make a Payment Card available for sharing, please create the record within the Vault section. Migration from data stored in Identity & Payments is planned for a future release.
To create Payment Cards that can be shared to other users, click on Create New > Record, then select the Payment Card type.
The "General" record type is Keeper's legacy record version.
Both newly created records and "General" record versions can be converted between types.
The new Custom Field types can only be added to new Record Type records.
