You can create lists of characters, actors, and sets (locations). Once you have created character, actor, and set lists, you can assign these lists to a project. Further, you can assign an actor playing the role of a particular character from the character list. A character list can have actors from multiple lists assigned to the various characters in that list.

A project’s Auto Complete options for characters and locations are populated from the character list and set list assigned to that project.
