Types of dependencies

There are different kinds of dependencies, and each object type in CCMS Web has different kinds of dependencies.

Note: In Dependencies view, if any type does not have a subtype, then no subtype bubbles are displayed. In this case, all the objects with that type of dependency are usually all the same type of object.

The following table lists the types and subtypes of dependencies for each object type::
