Step 1. Create the Product Entity Base Object

Step 1. Create the Product Entity Base Object

We need to create a Product entity base object that stores the records of the Product and Product Group entity types. We will assume that we have an empty state management-enabled Product base object that we can convert to an entity base object. When you convert a base object to an entity base object, the Hub Console adds the required hierarchy columns to the base object.
