You can create a table and add data components from an ERD. For how to create tables and relationships in an ERD, see Defining Data Structures using ERDs.
- In an ERD, select a table to use as backing data for a screen.
- To create a screen backed by this table, in the toolbar, click Screen Create.
- Select a screen layout template.
- Enter the name for the new screen.
- PhixFlow creates the screen using the selected template.
- Select attributes as follows.Error rendering macro 'excerpt-include' : No link could be created for 'Showing Data on a Screen'.
- Drag attributes onto the screen and drop them onto one of the areas highlighted in light blue.
When you drop the attribute, PhixFlow asks how you want the data to be displayed. Click an option to add a component for a grid, graph, chart or card, which will fit the available space in the parent component.
Select Form to set the parent as a form component, which is bound to the data view. PhixFlow adds a field to display the attribute being dropped.Work on one component at a time. So if you start adding fields to one area, add all the fields you need to this area and complete. As you drag subsequent attributes, PhixFlow highlights the same area.
When you click Next, you can set sort and filter options for the data records in the view.
This process creates a data component that is bound to a data view and opens its properties - see View Concepts
