About the Webinar
This is a Webinar addressed to ActivityInfo users or colleagues interested to learn more about this functionality.
Custom views, including Table, Map, Reader, and now Record detail views, allow database designers to create focused interfaces for users of the system so that ActivityInfo can serve not only as trusted system of record, but as an operational tool for case management, project & grant management, cash distribution, or other key workflows.
During this Webinar we will cover how Custom views allow you to create multiple, diverse views of your data for personal use or to share with other users.
We will cover:
- When and why to use Custom views
- Getting customized summaries and collaborating with Map and Table views
- Reading longer narratives in Reader view
- Digitizing workflows with the Record detail view
