Give your data a clear structure.

People, requests, invoices or locations: define the information you need and how it connects. AssetTypes and Assets turn that model into the foundation of your application.

From concepts to data

A type defines the structure. An Asset holds the data.

An AssetType describes a kind of information, such as Person, Exemption, Invoice or InvoiceStatus. You choose its properties. An Asset is an individual instance, such as a particular person or invoice.

Think of an AssetType as a database table or collection, and an Asset as a record. Every AssetType has the standard Name property. You configure other properties to suit your application.

Your own data model

Define the entities, properties and relationships your application needs.

Several ways to add data

Create Assets from a dataview, a process or the API. A process can guide users through the required steps.

Configurable properties

From text and amounts to files and locations.

Choose the data type that fits each property. Combine everyday information with references and structured data in the same model.

Text, numbers and choices

String for text, Integer for whole numbers, Decimal for decimal values and Boolean for yes/no values.

Dates and locations

DateTime for dates and times; LocationPoint for a geographic location.

References within your application

AssetType refers to a type, Asset to an individual record and Process to a process.

Files and flexible structure

File refers to a file in a FileStorage. ComplexObject provides a JSON object with a structure you define.

Make connections visible

Connect records and make statuses easy to recognise.

Use references to connect an invoice to a person or a report to a status. A dashboard can then display properties from the related Asset too.

For reference data, you can enable built-in properties such as Icon and Color. This gives a status or category a recognisable symbol and colour. A view can use those properties when displaying a reference, for example for markers on a map.

Location and hierarchy

See where an object sits within a chain.

Enable the built-in parent Asset reference for an AssetType. It can record, for example, that a package is on a pallet and the pallet is in a van.

The associated read-only LocationHierarchy property contains the complete location chain. A dashboard widget can show it as a breadcrumb, such as ‘Van 10 › Pallet 55’. Display the hierarchy of the current Asset, a related Asset or a fixed Asset you select.

One model, several uses

Put your data to work throughout the application.

The data layer is automatically exposed through the Conneqt API. Rights and roles determine which information a user may read or change. The service layer records the creation, modification and deletion of data.

Use Assets in processes, filters, views and dashboards. This connects your data structure to the information and actions people need in their work.

Work with data

Let a process request information, make decisions and update records.

See what matters

Present the same Assets in a table, map, calendar, timeline or dashboard with focused widgets.
