Custom Views

Custom Views

Custom Views allow you to quickly create views in the UI for any entity in the system. This includes system entities, custom entities and entities you have created with AddIns using our API as all entities whether system or designed are the same. You can use your custom view in any custom layouts or override system views with your own view.

Custom View Features

Any view created by this designer is a real view in the system the same as our standard ones - not a different view. This means your custom views seamlessly integrate with all our multi-platform client applications [see more] while also getting all the advanced functionality from our standard views. This brings a consistent and powerful experience to the user ensuring easier use of the capabilities and a quicker learning curve. The main features your view automatically acquires with no work are as follows:

• Enforced permissions
• Controls can be set to be placed in side grid row/cells, or
  • Can be set to automatically wrap, or stack depending on the available screen space available to the view
  • Can wrap or stack either horizontally or vertically
• Controls are automatically created appropriate to the data type
• Labels, help and validation are all visible to the user

For complete information on the standard functionality custom views automatically acquire see here.
