Get Started

The following procedure is an extremely abbreviated sequence to open Application Composer and have a look around.

Access Application Composer

  1. Within an active sandbox, navigate to Tools > Application Composer work area.

  2. When you open Application Composer, the Application list offers CRM Cloud and ERP and SCM Cloud environments. Select ERP and SCM Cloud.

  3. For each object node, whether Standard or Custom, expand it further to view and edit object details, such as object fields and pages.

  4. For both Standard and Custom Objects, you can view and edit the following details:
    • Fields: Add new fields to an object.

    • Pages: Modify the pages on which an object appears.

    • Actions and links: Add actions or links to desktop pages.

    • Server scripts: Write application logic that controls the behavior of an object's records.

    Note: For change order objects, you can’t configure fields in Application Composer.
  5. In this brief procedure, you can choose a business object, and we're selecting Idea. An idea is a standard object, populated with fields, or attributes. Navigate to Objects > Standard Objects > Idea > Fields > Create > Select Field Type to create fields.
  6. After creating the field, go to Pages, assign the field to a duplicated Landing page layout, and click Save.

  7. Open Ideas > Manage Ideas and click on an existing Idea to see the new attribute.

Note: This procedure is applicable for all object types, except change order. For change order objects, you can't configure or create fields in Application Composer.
