You can embed editorial content types inside your other editorial content types. For example, you have editorial content types Employee, Customer, and Director. Each content type includes address fields Street, City, State, and ZIP. You can create a single content type Address that contains the address fields, and embed Address inside Employee, Customer, and Director.

Embedded editorial content types are shared and can be included in multiple parent editorial content types. You can also simulate a one-off embedded editorial content type that is available in a single parent. For details, see Adding an embedded field.
