  Functionality:
  The MDG_MDF_GEN_TYPE transaction code allows users to define generic types in the SAP system. This includes creating new types, editing existing types, and deleting types that are no longer needed.

  It is important to note that once a type has been deleted, it cannot be recovered. Therefore, it is recommended that users exercise caution when deleting types and only do so when absolutely necessary. Additionally, users should ensure that all necessary changes have been made before saving a type, as any changes made after saving will not be saved.
