actual entities

In data and technology, "actual entities" refer to real-world objects, individuals, or concepts that exist independently and are represented within a system. For example, a person, a company, or a product are actual entities because they have a tangible or concrete presence in the real world. Recognizing actual entities helps systems organize, analyze, and make decisions based on real-world information. Differentiating actual entities from abstract ideas or fictional concepts ensures clarity and accuracy in data management and processing.
