    I suggest to start by searching the web.

    You will be surprised by how easy it is to find a lot of information.

    This time I did it for you, but I encourage to explore deeper by yourself.

    How about trying with the links I shared. They are quite good and I'm sure you can follow them. Perhaps you can even document your process and share it here? :)

    Anyway nobody has done exactly what you require in your project so you need to digest existing info and apply it in your unique situation. As far as I remember you have posted here for some years already so you can definetely do it!

    And both docs are exactly what you asked = step by step so I'm quite sure you can't get much more detailed instructions.

    Hi @rp@n,

    You should tell us what custom entities are used for? Do you encounter any doubts in your process?

    Nikolaos shared the official documentation, which is definitely very valuable, another blog:

    Good morning @rp@n,

    I don't think that the community can help you with some project related documents that are taken and shared from an implementation project. That would be against most regulations partners/consultants get into when they work on projects.

    Personally, I find the information that Nikolaos shared already very detailed.

    If you need more information then I would suggest that you contact the authors of the blog post / docs sites for more information or guidance on that.

    Would that be a good way forward for you?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
