Document Type as field type.
Is it possible for a document type field can point to another document type? I have 5 common fields that I need on many document types and don’t want to maintain those fields across many different document types.

For example

Document Type 1
- field a (text)
- field b (number)

Document Type 2
- field a (text)
- field b (Document Type 1)

Document Type 3
- field a (text)
- field b (Document Type 1)

RE:Document Type as field type.
Hello.

Unfortunately it is not possible to target another document type as field of current document type, but you could ensure similar functionality using form control: http://devnet.kentico.com/docs/devguide/developing_form_controls.htm
