Posted on by Luciano Schiavo

I intend to start my new project using PowerApps in a community environment. I have to create an entity called task and I realised that already exist a standard entity with the same name. In my case, some tasks will be associated to a calendar, for instance and the final system will be a product that I intend to sale in Microsoft AppSource.

In summary, when there is a similar entity ready in my environment do I must reuse it?

Thanks for any help in advance

Hi Luciano Schiavo,

I recommend using existing entities if they do not require a lot of customisation to meet your requirements. Create custom entities in all other situations.

I agree with the below response. Use existing entities unless you need customization to avoid additional complexity and effort.

Use existing entities wherever possible, create custom entities only if the entity not available or you have a specific reason!
