In one of our previous articles we added new fields to an object. Now let us see how to add a new object. Objects in Force.com platform translate to a database table. New objects are called custom objects.
New object can be added in Force.com platform under App Setup -> Create -> Objects. Clicking on 'New Custom Object' button on this page takes you to a page where you can enter your new object name and create the custom object. It allows you to enter name and type for 'Record Name' field as well which is a unique identifier for the record. You can set this to auto generate a number in a specific format as well as shown below.
After you create the object, you can setup user access either using Permission Sets or updating the Profiles under Administration Setup -> Manage Users. Look for 'Object Settings' while editing Permission Sets or look for 'Custom Object Permissions' while editing Profiles.
Our new custom object is ready with the standard fields and waiting for all the new custom fields. Go ahead and get working on them as per our article.
Happy cloud computing using Salesforce!
