Create an Entity Crossover


Administrators can create entity crossovers to track financial transactions that occur in more than one entity. For example, products for multiple entities can be processed together in one order when an entity crossover is set up.

  1. From Setup, enter Custom Metadata Types in the Quick Find box, then select Custom Metadata Types.

  2. Click Manage Records next to Community Hub.

  3. Click Edit next to MultipleCommunitiesWIN18.

  4. Ensure that Is Active is not selected.

  5. Click Save.

Multiple Entity Products | Visible if tag is inactive

Products of multiple entities will be visible only if MultipleCommunitiesWIN18 is inactive. If it is active, the products of single (primary) entity will be visible.

    Entity Crossover in Internationalization

    If you have enabled Salesforce multi-currency, Salesforce introduces the Currency field on all object layouts within your org.

    You can create an entity crossover record between two entities only if the same currency is set up on each entity record.
