See the following table for a description of the field values.
{#create-new-composite-entity-form-ws__table_l35_zwl_kkb__entry__2}

| Field | Description |
|-|-|
| Structure | Structure of entity. The options are as follows: * Single: Option to create a single dimension entity. * Composite: Option to create a multidimensional entity. Note: Select this option as you're creating a composite entity. {#create-new-composite-entity-form-ws__ul_uvb_dct_ddc} |
| Active | Status of the entity. |
| Class | Option to select the composite entity class for which you want to create a composite entity. For more information on how to create a composite entity class, see [Create an entity class](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/~RmZFcALhfVJg3K5TUywfw "Create an entity class that is associated with an entity. Entity classes are used to add a conceptual information about the entity and classify the entities. They represent a collection of entities that have the same attributes such as Department, Business Unit, or Business Service. You can gather data about the entities based on the entity class."). |
| Owner | Owner of the composite entity. |
| Applicable entities | Option to select the entities for each entity class. Select the Add ![Add icon]() icon. When you search for an entity, the application displays the entity hierarchy, and you can also view the complete content tree. |
| Name | Name of the composite entity. The name is automatically generated based on the selected entity classes, with a separator between them. To change the separator, see [Governance, Risk, and Compliance properties](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/H~E9evfjtj18ZqaTubI4qg "The following are the common GRC properties under Policy and Compliance and Risk Management."). |
| Description | Information about the composite entity. |
| Target | Option to mark the entity as one that participates in ESG target tracking. When selected, the entity can be linked to operational sustainability targets, such as measurable progress milestones toward goals like emissions reduction. |
| Framework | ESG reporting framework associated with the entity, such as GRI or SASB. This field appears only when the Target check box is selected. Selecting a framework scopes the entity's target and metric reporting to that disclosure standard. |
