![]() ![]() AppForms supports a 'Check-out' and 'Check-in' feature to allow a specific user to take ownership of working with or editing any form. It takes just a few minutes for a user new to AppForms to understand the working of AppForms for SharePoint and to start creating forms as required. So it's easy to create the look and feel of your form and set the properties like 'Font', 'Font Size', 'Label', 'Color' etc. Right side of the design interface has the properties window to set the individual properties for each form control dragged and dropped onto the form design panel. The AppForms Form Designer has a toolbox listing all the available form controls to drag and drop onto the design surface of the form being designed. All the Form field types and controls are available to you for designing the layout of your forms. Form Export/ImportĪppForms supports a WYSIWYG Designer to design your forms. This capability means that if anything is broken after deploying a change to a form, the designer can roll back the form to its prior state ensuring that the form can continue to be used while they investigate the issue introduced with the latest version. The most important aspect of this feature is the ability to roll back to a prior version of the form with a single click. A version of the form is maintained every time you 'Check-out' and 'Check-in' the form when making changes to it. This version control feature allows you to review the historic versions of any form and study the differences between the live form and any historic version that it is being compared to. This architecture enables AppForms to have a powerful version management feature that allows every version of a form to be maintained as historic versions of the existing active form. Since AppForms can work with any existing SQL Server Database schema, your legacy applications can be migrated to SharePoint and you can easily recreate the front-end functionality of legacy Classic ASP, or Visual Basic applications while continuing to use your existing SQL Server database.ĬlaySys AppForms is a 'Metadata' driven product, which means that all the design definitions and business logic for a form created using the product are maintained as a metadata file in XML. AppForms gives you the ability to embed complex business logic and validation rules into individual forms which let you build business applications without needing to write any software code. Anyone of the forms you create can read or write to one or more data sources - giving you all the flexibility and connectivity you need.

Creating functionality in a Dev Environment and moving it over to QA, Staging, and Production is also simplified with the metadata migration tools built into ClaySys AppForms. ![]() The experience is similar to working with Microsoft SharePoint, where once you deploy SharePoint and want to use the OOTB (out of the box functionality), a business user can do it directly as long as they have the right permissions to access the application. This capability allows the business side of the organization to take some control over creating their functionality using ClaySys AppForms. When using ClaySys AppForms, once the product is deployed, then creating all the required functionality is just configuration that requires no code updates or code deployment cycles. The biggest challenge with deploying Forms or Business Applications within large organizations is the complex and time-consuming deployment cycle to deploy functionality and ongoing changes. ![]()
