## What to do next

Once pillars and entity types are set up, configure the entity filters. For more information, see [Configure the entity filters](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/sBe5FXHQE4HhREM3C_aXpg "Configure entity filters to define the records from ServiceNow tables that populate each entity type after setting up pillars and entity types. Entity filters use selection criteria to identify and pull relevant records automatically. You can build custom filter conditions tailored to your requirements or select from predefined (saved) queries for common scenarios.").
