Customizing screens, toolbars, and portlets
You can change the NexJ CRM, NexJ Admin Console, or NexJ System Admin Console user interface for individual users, user types, or define them across the system so that all users will see them.
Note: Typically, a
developer configures screens, toolbars, and portlets in NexJ Studio. Before using
any of these tabs, contact your NexJ representative.
These changes can be as large as removing an entire screen from the application, or as small as changing the columns displayed in a list.
You define changes by customizing applications, screens, and portlets.
- Application
- An application is a collection of screens or workspaces. For example, NexJ CRM and NexJ Admin Console are applications.
- Screen
- A screen defines the layout of forms and sub-layouts. A screen is also known as a workspace. For example, the Home workspace in NexJ CRM is a screen.
- Portlet
- A portlet is a type of screen that can communicate with other portlets on a workspace. For example, AgendaPortlet and MyTasksPortlet are portlets on the Home workspace.
- Form
- A form contains a layout for user interface controls, such as buttons, labels, and grids. Forms display data and enable users to query, view, create, or edit instances of a class. For example, frmTaskUserList is a form that displays a list of user tasks.
