Key Features

Application Builder

The application builder allows to build sophisticated web applications without writing any program code.

19 different field types

Allow the creation of advanced data entry pages including:

+ required field validation
+ drop downs & radio button lists
+ database lookup fields to validate data against other tables
+ file attachments
+ picture fields with automatic thumbnail generation

Interactive Data Grids

The data grid provides all the features usually only available in current desktop applications:

+ change the sort order
+ hide/show columns
+ change the column width
+ group records by one or more columns by dragging & dropping columns to the group by box
+ change the display of the columns by drag & drop

Lookup Combo Box

The Lookup Combo Box is used to reference records from another application/table. The combo box provides a user experience similar to a desktop application with:

+ Auto Complete: just type some characters and the combo box suggests an item as you type from the combo box's list of items. The suggestion will get more accurate as more characters are typed. This allows users to easily find items within the combo box without having to scroll through the list of items.
+ Populate On Demand: the records shown in the drop down list are only loaded if the user scrolls through the list. This feature allows navigating even in large datasets without any performance degradation.

Search / Filter

A varsity of filter criteria can be used to search for specific records.

Data Export

All application data can be exported to HTML, PDF, XML, Excel, TIFF, RTF/Word or Text files.

Views

Views can be used to filter data for specific information needs.
+ a view can include all or only selected fields
+ the field order and the sort order of the data can be defined independently of the base table
+ It is possible to define one or more filter criteria to select which records are included in the view.
+ Aggregated Views (Sum, Average, Count)
+ the Aggregate Views can be both exported as PDF/Excel files and shown in Dashboards. This allows the creation of powerful reporting applications

Relationships

It is possible to define relationships between tables (e.g. a opportunity is related to an account). All related records are shown at the bottom of the page. The application builder provides three types of default related records: tasks, documents and activities.

My Applications Portlet

Shows all applications where the current user has appropriate permissions.

Portlets

Ready-to-use Portlets allow the integration of applications into any Portal.

+ New record Portlet: allows a quick data entry directly onto Portal pages
+ View Portlet: shows selected and aggregated records
+ Application: integrates the whole application into a Portal page
+ Dashboard Portlets: all dashboard Portlets can directly use application builder views as their data source

Workflow Integration
