Tip
Tip Instead of completing this task manually, get help from Setup with Agentforce. For example, ask the Setup agent, “Can you help me create a custom object?” For more information, see Data Model Management in Setup with Agentforce.
  1. From the Object Manager tab in Setup, click Create | Custom Object.
  2. Complete the fields for your custom object and configure its features.
  3. If you want to create a custom tab for the object immediately after you save it, select Launch New Custom Tab Wizard after saving this custom object.
    To create the custom object tab later, from Setup in the Quick Find box, enter Tabs, and then click Tabs.
  4. Save the new object.
  5. In the Object Manager, click Fields & Relationships, and create the custom fields that your object needs.
Tip
Tip If you don’t want your users to see the new custom object while you design and test it, to hide it, set the deployment status to In Development.
