The app menu The app menu is normally accessible on the top right-hand side of the screen and has 3 vertical dots . The first item App – Main Screen is always a link to the main page of the app, the main app screen. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/data-lists/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/data-lists/ Main data type screen, toolbars, view settings… Using your application data types. Main type view (full) Toolbar Perspective edition The Perspectives button lets you manage perspectives. Perspective are some times referred to as “Saved Search” as they are the mechanism in Simitless that lets you save a search to be able to call it again without having to compose all the data filters and settings. Saved search and overridden settings for creating a custom view, a new perspective on your data. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/objects/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/objects/ Objects data types are data types that contain other data types. Data Records are created and stored by the platform at the object level. As per the database system limitations, records can accept a limit of 16 MB of data in them, including internal system information. Some object require specific fields to function. The platform creates those fields automatically if needed. In the object type settings, you can change which field apply to fulfil the requirements. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/edition/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/edition/ Editing your app in Simitless is easy. The edition panel can be reached from nearly every screen and your application can be edited in real time. The forms users are currently using will update automatically near instantly. Edition menu To open the edition panel, use the app menu. It is normally accessible on the top right-hand side of the screen and has 3 vertical dots . In the menu, you will find a line “ Edit App”. https://docs.simitless.com/guides/yourown/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/guides/yourown/ Get your Simitless app working the same way you work. Working efficiently with any system requires you to understand and identify you own way of working. Each step of your process requires various data to be input. All this data, once grouped and structured will give you the information you need to make the right decision for your activity. In a Simitless app, you can hold in a single place all the information you need to inform your decision, based on your own way of working. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/data-form/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/data-form/ Editing information, viewing the information details. Data edit form view The data edition form is where you can view the details and edit your data records. It is composed of a header section, a list of fields and a footer section. Header The header is presenting the information related to the current record being edited. Popup or Full screen The forms can be opened in a popup box or in full screen mode. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/fields/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/fields/ Fields data types are a definition of the value that each of the data record will hold. Data Objects contain data fields. Those define the type of data your records will hold. In some cases, fields will be created automatically because the parent object requires it. For example, a map object requires a position field to store the location of each map marker and proposes an optional text field for their names. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/user-access/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/user-access/ Access rights and roles in Simitless are very granular. This means it can be finely tuned to match the exact access requirement for each user of your applications. Access rights Access rights are defined by the platform in terms of what a user can do with the application or data type. The access rights that can be enabled or disabled are: Application View the application Manage user rights and approve users wanting rights on the application Edit the application Export the application settings and data Import and override the application settings and data Delete the application Email from the application Create a type in this application Create a dashboard in this application Create a workflow in this application Types View the data type Edit the data type Delete the data type Data View the data Create data Edit data Delete data Import data Export data Own Data View the data that was created by the same user Edit data that was created by the same user Delete data that was created by the same user Dashboards View the dashboard Edit the dashboard Delete the dashboard Workflows View and work on the workflow Start the workflow Cancel the workflow Edit the workflow Delete the workflow Landing page Create a landing page in this application Edit the app landing page Delete the app landing page Publish the app landing page Products Create a product in this application Edit products Delete products Manage application prospects for the products of the app Access rights can be granted by default to a user or after a user is given access to an application. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/import/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/import/ Importing data enables you to fill the required data in your app quickly and easily. You don’t have to input all of the data for your app manually one by one. If the data you need is already input in some way in a computer file, you probably can convert it to a CSV file (Comma Separated Values Files). This is a very popular format as it is very simple and allow most application to exchange information in a somewhat standard format. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/settings/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/settings/ Options and settings are set by default to the most likely choice we identified but tuning them lets you create the application you want rather than the one we think you would like. Data Type Settings The main data type settings are applicable to all data types in your application. Visual aspect of type This is the default way the data will be displayed and how the data will be constrained. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/calculations/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/calculations/ Some times, fields don’t have to be manually input into you database. If you can think of any way to automate the calculation of their value, you’ll gain even more time. Calculations are a defined way to define a value based on other values in your app. You can define a formula using the graphical tool we provide in the platform. When the trigger parameters are met, the formula will be run for this field, pulling data from the required fields, and computing its value so that it will be updated on the server, directly in the database. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/perspectives/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/perspectives/ Saved search and overridden settings for creating a custom view, a new perspective on your data. Perspective menu Override user rights setting The perspective menu is accessible through the button with the icon. This menu lists your own perspectives on top and the shared ones at the bottom of the menu. For each perspective you have access to a few icons letting you edit the settings quickly: https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/constraints/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/constraints/ Constraints help you make sure that the data that is input into your app is matching what is expected. It helps improve your app data quality and consistency. Constraints Simple Constraint definition form Simple constraint to help you make sure that the data that is input into your app is valid. This is set like a search filter. If the data matches the filter, it is accepted but if the data does not match the filter, the server will refuse to save it and it will show a message to the user with a proposal to modify or reset the form. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/graphs/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/graphs/ Note: Site under construction.

Experimental features https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/history/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/history/ Sometimes even such an intricate access rights system does not do the trick. That is why Simitless has integrated a “history” system. Whenever a piece of data is edited, Simitless keeps track, not only of its past values, ​​but of the users who edited the data in the last 3 months. With this extra layer of security you gain an a posteriori control over the value changes in your application. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/tools/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/tools/ Bulk actions, data actions. The Simitless platform enables you to bulk process the data in many ways. Selecting data Manually selected data Data can be selecting by using the “bulk select” button to activate or deactivate bulk data selection. Tables are showing this button but other display types some times directly show a selection box that enable the bulk selection toolbar as soon as at least one element is selected. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/dashboards/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/dashboards/ Note: Site under construction.

Experimental features https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/transformation/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/transformation/ Transformation templates lets you define document templates for transforming records into prints, documents or exportable text. Note: The transformation templates, because of it’s complexity, and unlike most settings and elements in Simitless require you to press the Save button. If you navigate away without saving, your changes WILL BE LOST. Simple Constraint definition form Creation and Options How to create a new Transformation template: When editing the settings of an object data type, you can navigate to the transformation templates edition screen by clicking Modify next to the Transformation templates field. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/licences/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/licences/ Working with your application, you will handle and input plenty of data. What about the status of your information, numbers or even photographs in the different services and applications you create? Copyright basics The legal aspect of the authorization to reuse – or not – is typically handled under the copyright law. To standardize the approach, we typically use data licenses so that each author don’t need to create terms and conditions from scratch every time. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/user-rights/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/types/user-rights/ Access rights and roles in Simitless are very granular. This means it can be finely tuned to match the exact access requirement for each user of your applications. Override user rights Override user rights setting A setting to override user rights is available on all data types. This enables you to define specific rights for a data type only while different user rights are defined centrally in the app. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/workflows/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/workflows/ Note: Site under construction. The documentation is incomplete for this feature. Experimental features https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/conversion/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/data/conversion/ Converting data from one format to another is rarely compatible. Whenever possible, the platform tries to interpret the changes to minimize the loss of information through the conversions. {return c.to})); console.log('\n\n\tFrom / To'+ storable.map(s = `${s}`).join('') + '\n\t\n' + storable.map((from)={ return `\t\t${from}` + storable.map((to)={ return Blaze._globalHelpers.DataMigration.isConverterLossy(from, to)? 'Lossy':'Convert'; }).join('') + "\n"; }).join('') + "\n\n"); -- Nevertheless, most conversion will result in some kind of loss of meaning. This documentation page focuses on keeping track of which kind of data is a lossy conversion or not. https://docs.simitless.com/applications/resale/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://docs.simitless.com/applications/resale/ Note: Site under construction.
