Salesforce Custom Objects
Salesforce Custom Objects are database tables that allow users to store and manage unique data specific to their business needs within the Salesforce platform. They are defined by custom fields, relationships, and metadata, enabling the creation of tailored applications without traditional coding. Custom Objects form the core data model for customizing Salesforce to support processes like customer management, project tracking, or inventory control.
Developers should learn Salesforce Custom Objects when building or customizing applications on the Salesforce platform to handle business-specific data that isn't covered by standard objects like Accounts or Contacts. They are essential for creating custom CRM solutions, integrating external data, or developing apps on Salesforce AppExchange, as they provide the flexibility to model unique entities such as products, projects, or events within the Salesforce ecosystem.
