User Interface : Entities

An Entity models a business object that will be generated as a class with its own table, repository, commands and queries, and (if presentation projects are enabled) its own UI pages.

Create and edit form

General

Field	Description
Name singular	The singular Name of the Entity using PascalCase format. It will be automatically converted to PascalCase if necessary. This will be used as the class name of the Entity and resources.
Name plural	The plural Name of the Entity using PascalCase format. It will be automatically converted to PascalCase if necessary. This will be used for the DbSet, table name, routes and resources.
Generate domain events	Indicates whether domain events should be generated for the Entity.

Id

Field	Description
Id type	The type of the identifier for the Entity. Choose between Byte, Guid, Int, Long or Short. Int or Guid is recommended for most scenarios.
Id is auto-generated	Indicates whether the identifier is automatically generated (by the application for Guid or by the database for other types). If not, the identifier must be manually set in the Presentation layer.
Id is primary key	Indicates whether the identifier is the primary key of the Entity. This is recommended for most scenarios. If not, you must select the primary key(s) by selecting one (for 1-1 relationships) or many (for N-N relationships) on the Entity properties page. Moreover, an Index will be created at the database level for the Id as it will be used anyway for Edit and Delete operations.
