Unit Type

What it’s for

A unit type is just a category, like “Studio.” This screen keeps that list up to date for a cluster, so units and listings elsewhere in the app can be sorted by it.

Where to find it

Sidebar → Settings → Unit Type, at /admin/settings/unit-type.

Who can use it

• See the menu item and open the page — needs view.
• See the list — needs get.
• Create, edit, delete — each needs its own permission, so a role can, for example, edit unit types without being able to delete them.

On this screen

A searchable table of unit types for the cluster you’ve currently got selected, with edit and delete on each row, plus a Create Unit Type button.

How to…

Create a unit type

1. Click Create Unit Type.
2. Enter a title, like “Studio.”
3. Save.

The cluster is set automatically to whichever one you’ve currently selected — there’s no cluster picker in the form.

Edit a unit type

1. Click edit on the row.
2. Change the title.
3. Save.

Delete a unit type

1. Click delete on the row.
2. Confirm.

The confirmation dialog tells you this can’t be undone.

Field reference

Field	Required	Notes
Title	Yes	The only thing you can edit
Cluster	Yes	Comes from your currently selected cluster — not picked in the form

Rules & statuses

No lifecycle here — a unit type just exists until you edit or delete it. Deleting is immediate and can’t be undone from this screen.
