Hi @vodnalar26 

Types of Update set?? , Are you sure, there is nothing like types of update set, Update sets are meant to capture work done on your instance

Articles suggested by @Dr Atul G- LNG  would be further helpful for you to understand 

I hope my response helps 🙂

Hi @vodnalar26,

there is no types of update sets. The current update sets captures changes made to configurations (not data!!!), not all changes are captured. Only difference might be the scope - update set for global, now assist, HR, and other modules... 

To access the update sets, it's under Local Update sets, from there you can export it and to move it to another instance you use Retrieved Update sets to import. But it's not different type, it's still the same thing.

Also, one update set can be a parent to another.

TL;DR there are no types of update sets, they vary only in the scope and there are as many scope as your instance have, every new app scope will add one more.
