We are updating the images for OroCommerce version 6.1 to align with the latest changes in the back-office design. During this transition, some images may still show older versions. Thank you for your patience as we work to update all visuals to reflect these changes.

Entities

OroCommerce equips users and developers with powerful UIs that they can use to manage both simple and complex data entities, including all entity attributes (fields) and relations. As a developer, you can easily enable standard CRUD pages for a new entity, and with the same ease, you can add more fields to any of the entities that you have created before by adding new entity properties, creating a migration script and modifying the templates.
