Note: This release is in preview. Features described here don’t become generally available until the latest general availability date that Salesforce announces for this release.

Step 1: Create an Object

Create an Invoice Statement object from the user interface.
After you create a PushTopic and subscribe to it, you’ll get notifications when an Invoice Statement record is created, updated, deleted, or undeleted. You’ll create the object with the user interface.

    • In the Data Type field , select Auto Number.
    • In the Display Format field, type INV-{0000}.

    8. Click Save & New to save this field and create a new one.
  5. Now create an optional Description field.
    1. In the Data Type field, select Text Area and click Next.
    2. In the Field Label and Field Name fields, enter Description.
