# The Entity Editor Object

The Entity Editor Object is specifically designed for [ATO (Advanced Transaction Object) management environments](/v1/docs/about-the-advanced-transaction-object-ato). It allows you to create Entity members, change the description of existing ones, and manage their Relationships with other Entity members.

ATO management environments are Screens that provide Planners with a controlled and guided environment for creating new Entity members and Relationships via the Entity Editor object.

The following image shows a full-featured Entity Editor associated with the Product Entity:

## Example

The following video shows the creation of a new member of the Product Group Entity via the Entity Editor object.

The Entity Editor object is placed in an ATO-enabled Panel container: once the new member is created, it is visible in the Data View after refreshing the Screen.
