Building an App in the Vizion Platform
The goal of this training is to provide new Administrator users with skills to model, build, and create a business process using the Vizion Platform.
This training will work through a muti-step process showing the build out of an example application. By following along you will learn how to use and apply most major development items in the platform.
Developing an application is an iterative process as each requirement is addressed and implemented. In addition, the innovation process often requires trial and error to land on an optimal configuration. Be patient and keep an open mind to alternative configurations and approaches to solve the problem.
Some items such as workplans, workflow, mobile applications, external user security role access restrictions, integrations, and embedded widgets are available to enhance the solutions and will be covered in additional training courses.
Details about the example Equipment Checkout application are found on the Planning Pre-Work page.
