Advanced share structure: This structure is basically used by more than one owner and all the owners are family members corporation. It allows to issue class A common voting and class B common non-voting shares but does not allow issuing preferred shares.

Customize share structure: This structure is basically used by more than one owner and any one of the owners are non-family members (relatives, friends, business partners). This allows you to make custom share classes of your own (with/without preferred shares).
