# Enable Product Use Type for Products

With the 26R1 release, Veeva Safety adds the _Product Use Type_ field to _Product_ records, enabling you to designate _Products_ as _Company Use_, _Study Use_, or _External Use_. When selecting company products in the _Product Browser_, available during intake and case processing, Vault returns only _Products_ with a _Product Use Type_ of _Company Use_ or blank. Returning only relevant _Company Products_ supports faster product coding and case processing.

After you have configured this feature, see <a href="/en/gr/01215/#prod-use-type">Manage Products</a> for more information.
