# Create Custom modules in CRM

Modules in Zoho CRM, let you categorize and track various aspects of your business. We will be creating two custom modules namely **EcomProducts** and **Orders** for storing the product inventory and the orders placed respectively. You can learn more about custom modules from the CRM documentation.

To create a custom module in CRM, follow these steps:

1. Login to your Zoho CRM account.

2.  Click Setup in the top right corner of the dashboard as shown in the screenshot below, and under the Customization section, click Modules and Fields.
 <br />

3. Click New Module.
 <br />

#### EcomProducts

This module is used to store the details of various products available in the ecommerce online store. Please make sure to add the fields given below for the EcomProducts custom module.

<table class="content-table">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th>Field Name</th>
                <th>Type</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody>
            <tr>
                <td>EcomProductName</td>
                <td>Single Line</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td>Product_image</td>
                <td>URL</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td>Price</td>
                <td>Number</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
                <td>Inventory Count</td>
                <td>Number</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>

                <td>Lookup</td>
            </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>
