# Enter the '''Application Name''': ''Order Processing''
# Enter the '''Application Name'''  
# Enter the name of the first object: ''Orders''

# Enter the first '''Object name'''
#: <!-- Common -->
# Click '''[Define Fields]'''
# Click '''[Define Fields]'''
# Add the first fields for the Orders object:
#* '''Field Label:''' ''Order Number'' (note that the internal field name is created)
#* '''Field Type:''' ''Autonumber'' (note the many choices)
#: This field gets a new, unique number every time a record is added.
# Add one more field, to tell where the order came from:
#* '''Field Label:''' ''Source''
#* '''Field Type:''' ''Picklist''
#: The '''Values''' field appears. Enter a comma-separated list of values of the dropdown that will appear for the user to pick from:
#:: '''Catalog,Internet,Store'''
# Click '''[Save]'''
# Under '''Key Field''', select the field to use for indexing: ''Order Number''

#:
# Click '''[Add an Object]'''
# For each field, specify:
# Enter the name of the second object: OrderItems
#* '''Field Label -''' The label users will see (the internal field name is created for you)
# Click '''[Define Fields]'''
#* '''Field Type -''' Pick one of the many many choices
# Add the initial OrderItems fields:
#:
#* '''Field Label:''' ''Item Description''
# Follow the prompts to add additional information, depending on the field type.
#* '''Field Type:''' ''Text Field''
# {{TBD| To add additional fields click '''[More Fields]'''}}
#* '''Field Label:''' ''Item Quantity''
# When done adding fields, click '''[Save]'''
#* '''Field Type:''' ''Number''
#:
#* '''Field Label:''' ''Item Price''
# To add additional objects, click '''[Add an Object]''' and repeat the process.
#* '''Field Type:''' ''Currency''
#: Those are all the data fields that need to be added, for the moment. The calculations on the data will be defined later.
# Click '''[Save]'''
 
Next, you'll establish the relationship between those two objects. In this case, there could be multiple OrderItems, each of which ''Looks up'' to a single Order, which defines a [[Lookup]] relationship.


Next, eestablish the relationship between the application objects, to create the [[Lookup]] fields that connect them:
# Click '''[Add a Relationship]'''
# Click '''[Add a Relationship]'''
# Under '''Relationships''' fill in the blanks:
# Under '''Relationships''' fill in the blanks:
#: '''Between''' ''Orders'' '''and''' ''OrderItems''
#: '''Between''' ''Orders'' '''and''' ''OrderItems''
# Specify the '''Relationship Type:''' ''One to Many''<br>(One Order can have many Order Items
# Specify the '''Relationship Type:'''
#* '''One to Many -''' One __??___ can have many __??__
#* '''One to One -''' One __??___ can have one __??__


Now it's time to save your work and create the application:
Create the application:
# Click '''[Create this Application]'''
# Click '''[Create this Application]'''
# Click '''[Open Application]'''
# Click '''[Open Application]''' to run it, or '''[__??__]''' to begin customizing it immediately
You're now ready to explore the application objects.
