  Key Concepts: 
  Entity type tree is a component of the CRM-IPS Public Sector module in SAP. It is a hierarchical structure that allows users to define and manage the relationships between different entities, such as customers, vendors, and products. The entity type tree is used to define the relationships between entities and to ensure that data is stored in an organized manner. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The entity type tree can be used to create relationships between entities. For example, a customer can be linked to a vendor, or a product can be linked to a customer. The entity type tree also allows users to define the types of relationships that can exist between entities. For example, a customer can be linked to a vendor in a “customer-vendor” relationship, or a product can be linked to a customer in an “order-customer” relationship. 
  
  Tips & Tricks:
