# Case Types

This object allows you to create custom case types. You then can create case instances from a case type.
Peach has a predefined collection of special case types,
such as `bankruptcy`, `identityTheft`, and more. You can use any of the special types
as your base case type. To customize your case type you can:
- Add additional custom fields
- Add and remove automatic `Do Not Interact Types`
- Add custom name
- Add custom description

If you don't want to use any of the special predefined case types, then use `generic` as your base type.
