Question

Form for dispatching applications

1

When you compose logically-multiple applications into one (e.g. MyApp = customer management + sales management), you will need an entry home screen which allows users to select which application to start. Is there any good design practice for doing this? References to previous questions or documentations on similar topics would also be appreciated.

You can combine the menu's in the modeller, which is a manual proces.

You can create a homeform with buttons that opens the application.

It is not supported automatically in Mendix.

Hi Akira,

You can easily build a startpage by creating a form with just microflow triggers. These microflow triggers should redirect your users to the right forms. If you have css skills, you can easily style these microflow triggers to fancy and nice buttons.
