Record Type
One kind of record, the system that keeps its original and the systems that mirror it.
One Record Type row is one kind of record the systems keep, such as Membership, Deal or Metric, typed schema:Class. It names the single system where people create and correct that record, the System of Record, and every system that shows a synced copy, Mirrored In. A synced copy is never a second record type, whatever the table is called in the base that holds it.
What a row is
On 2026-10-28 the table has 62 rows. Per System of Record: Core Record Types 16, KPIs & OKRs 17, Tooling and Access 9, CRM 5, Products & Services 6, Systems Central 5, Communication 4. Organization and Tag are mirrored in six systems and Membership in five; most kinds have no mirror.
The build rule “Every record type is registered in Systems Central” makes this table the register that new tables must enter. Work Item, created on 2026-10-28, is not registered yet; see Known gaps.

Review state
49 rows are Checked. 13 are not, and each has a Review Note: Organization, Person, Membership, Team, Department, Position, Campaign, Tag, Classification Term, Organization Relationship, Tool Account, Lead Source Automation and Architecture Decision. Most notes are about mirrors in other bases with a misleading name or no description, for example a CRM copy named after its vocabulary type. The Membership note records the broken name lookups in this base. These notes point at problems; the fixes happen in the bases concerned.
The Relationship row is removed from the model: the CRM table it points to was deleted on 2026-11-04 and leads are now Deals at stage Lead. The row itself is still Checked and has not been retired yet.
Rules
- Exactly one System of Record. The link is single, so the picker enforces it.
- Table ID opens a table inside the System of Record. Mirror tables keep their own ids, which are not listed.
- A two-way copy is still listed in Mirrored In. Its edits return to the System of Record.
- Unticked Checked means not reviewed yet, not wrong.
Example
A fictitious new kind: Name Service Visit, BDS Type ops:ServiceVisit, System of Record Field Service, Table ID the new table’s id, Mirrored In CRM, Checked unticked, Review Note CRM: mirror not created yet.
