Fitrix Complete
|
The Fitrix Applications Toolkit is an advanced
Rapid Application Development (RAD) application workbench that allows
developers to design an application and have the computer generate the code
to create it. This process reduces costs as well as development time and
assures superior design consistency. The Toolkit environment ensures that
all programs are built in a standardized way, automates much of the
programming process, and substantially reduces the time and costs associated
with enhancing and maintaining your software over time. The Fitrix Applications Toolkit starts with a library of reusable parts. You define the application changes to the standard Fitrix product, and the Toolkit generates the tailored application. You make any desired business-logic additions within the powerful 4GL environment, and when you generate the finished custom application, all customization logic and code is stored outside of the core application logic as "net changes." The entire suite of Fitrix software applications is designed to allow complete software customization in this manner, which helps ensure forward compatibility with future software releases. What makes the Fitrix Applications Toolkit different is that these new code additions also become part of the application library. This means additions can be reused in later versions of the code. It also means that you can redefine the application by changing parts of the specification. The system then plugs in your logic where it belongs in the new version of the code, enabling you to use the Toolkit to maintain the code without losing your manual additions. The Fitrix Development Toolkit includes:
With these tools, a technical person can learn to rapidly
modify any screens or business processes that you want to tailor to support
your exact needs. This equates to significant money savings by allowing you
to keep Fitrix applications up with your business requirements over time, and by allowing
you to quickly and easily build additional system capabilities onto your
Fitrix system to support future system needs. Form Painter The Form Painter allows the development of data-entry
screens or forms. It is an interactive visual front-end featuring a
full-screen form editor, application definition dialog boxed, and point and
shoot selection capabilities from the database definition. Menu Generator Using Menus, you can easily develop a feature-rich
application user
interface and control program access for all users and groups. Also
builds help text, allows audit trail creation, and supports hidden menu
options for sensitive areas. Report Generator Report Generator is a report production tool that
takes an "image" of your report and generates the 4GL code to produce that
report code for the programs you need. Full applications Source Code is included with Fitrix Complete, which gives you the peace of mind and self-sufficiency to have complete control over the future of your business applications as long as you own Fitrix. It's completely tailorable application architecture means Fitrix may well be the last back-office system you'll buy.
