Objects

Objects represent entities in the CRM system, such as Contacts, Companies, or Custom Objects. Objects serve as the foundation for organising and managing data.

Custom objects

Unlike Standard Objects, Custom Objects allow you to define and structure your own data models. Custom Objects offer flexibility by enabling you to specify:
  • Name of the object
  • Fields and field types (e.g., single line text, number, date picker)
  • Searchable properties — fields that can be indexed for searching
  • Primary display property — the main identifier used when displaying a record
Custom Objects are fully configurable today. Support for additional configuration on Standard Objects (Contacts, Companies) will be expanded in future updates.

Records

Records are instances of an object. Each record contains specific data according to the schema defined in its parent object.

Example: real estate CRM

Scenario: A real estate CRM needs to manage properties as a Custom Object and link them to potential buyers (Contacts). Step 1 — Define a Custom Object: Property Listings
  • Fields: Property Name, Address, Price, Property Type, Bedrooms, Bathrooms, Listing Status
  • Searchable Properties: Property Name, Address
  • Primary Display Property: Property Name
Step 2 — Create records (instances of Property Listings)
  • Luxury Villa - 123 Street (Price: $2,000,000)
  • Modern Apartment - Downtown (Price: $750,000)
Step 3 — Associate records with contacts
  • Contact John Doe linked to Luxury Villa - 123 Street as an Interested Buyer
  • Contact Sarah Smith linked to Modern Apartment - Downtown as a Potential Tenant
