Specify the OData entity that a Zero Copy Connector for ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) model uses for a read, update, or create operation.

## Before you begin

The read, update, or create operation must be added before an entity can be added to it. For more information, see [Add an operation to a model in Zero Copy Connector for ERP](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/aImlQVW8gdvPX~CTNzODkg "Add an operation to an ERP model in Zero Copy Connector for ERP to define how the model retrieves data, writes data, or creates a new instance of the business object.").

   systems in the instance. If the ERP system exposes its catalog service at a different path, its services aren't listed. For more information, see [Zero Copy Connector for ERP system properties](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/S5wz2D86RRMe73S1W8Mi0Q "System properties that control Zero Copy Connector for ERP behavior, including debug logging, OData connections, and ETL extraction settings.").

   If you don't see the service you need, add the service by selecting + Add service manually. For more information, see [Add an OData service manually in Zero Copy Connector for ERP](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/5molMEjqYYvFMdbk2nyl9Q "When adding an entity to a model using OData, if the service you need isn't listed, add the service manually in Zero Copy Connector for ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning).").
9. Wait for the OData Endpoints field to load, and then in Select the endpoints, specify an endpoint.
