Tools and Widgets Explained

Subscribe-HR development platform allows users and third party developers to create extensions (Apps). Apps can include a number of simple components e.g. Objects, Fields, Actions etc. In addition Apps can have complex components with rich dynamic content. The following component types can be created through the platform:

  1. Widget - dashboard widget that is rendered as one of the tiles on the dashboard.
  2. Wizard - a start wizard that contains a number of steps to take the user through.
  3. Workbench - a workbench specific application.
  4. Tool - an application within tools area.
