Manage parameters
The first input field is where you specify the application url parameters. It is a list of slash separated parameters.
Components using url parameters needs to be mapped to the correct application parameter.
In this example we have an application which has defined two url parameters: orderid and itemid.
Later we might want to add a component to this application: ngcoalist. This component has used another name for the orderid parameter, namely: salesOrderId.
When we add the component to the application we then need to map the parameter salesOrderId to orderid. This is done from the component settings panel.
The second input field is not used in all applications, but here you can specify name of the main Rambase archive the application is targeting.
This is needed for displaying file mananger information and task information for the current document.
Configuration
Application introduction/tour: Clicking the Edit/add button will open a popup window where you can create an application tour which will be displayed to the user the first time they enter the application.
The application tour will be shown as a set of speech bubbles, where each bubble can be attached to an HTML element.
The tour is written in javascript using a collection of steps. Eeach step represents a bubble with properties like target element, intro text and position:
Collapse pane: Several applications in Rambase display a list view in a left pane (column) and a detail view in a right pane.
Then if the application is opened with a numeric first parameter, it often means that the user is interessed in the details of that particular item.
Then by initially collapsing the left pane, the whole screen width will be dedicated to the detail view.
Menu items
Here you can select a collection of menuitems you want to display in your application. The menu collection and menu items can be created in the CMC application.
In this example we have selected the menu collection named: salesOrderItem. Many menu items like depends on parameters, and you would then need to map the parameters between the menu
collection and the application.
