We have the following courses for Analysis Models:

Recommendations

It is easier to work through the courses if you can see the instructions and PhixFlow at the same time, using either two screens or a split screen.

Run PhixFlow in Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. 

Help

  1. Context Help: Each of the main sections in PhixFlow, such as Screens, has a context help page on the right. This contains links to useful pages in the PhixFlow help that will guide you through key tasks. Click on the  Help tab to show or hide this panel. It can also be defaulted to shown or hidden in your user settings. 
  2. Help: Each of the main sections in PhixFlow has its own area in the PhixFlow help. While the context help provides links for key tasks, the help contains all the pages.
  3. Properties: Every item in PhixFlow has an associated help page that explains its properties, simply click on the   Help in the property editor to access it.
  4. Support: Can't find what you need? Or have a specific question? Contact our support team who will be happy to help you. See Support Home

Tips

  1. Any of the images in this course can be enlarged by clicking on them.
  2. The  Apply button saves changes made in the properties. The  Apply and Close button will save all changes and close the properties.
  3. In certain circumstances, edits made to screens do not appear immediately. If you are not seeing the change you are expecting then close the screen and reopen it again.
  4. Property tabs can be pinned so they remain open. To achieve this click on the  Pin/Unpin Selected Objects in the tab header.
  5. Property tabs can be dragged to create additional columns:

Application Home Screen

PhixFlow is divided into key areas, each of which is designed to handle a different aspect of application creation:

Entity Relationship Diagrams

Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERDs) allow us to define the data that backs your application and the relationships between data objects.

Workflows

Workflows model business processes from end to end, showing the actual components of your application that performs each activity. They visually depict a detailed sequence of business activities and information flows needed to complete your business process.

Screens

Screens allow application users to interact with data. Users drag and drop templates and components to design a screen or customise their own using CSS.

Analysis Models

Use Analysis Models to process large data sets and create integrations with your existing data sources.

Actionflows

Actionflows create the functionality of your application in the form of actions. These actions are available through buttons and click events associated with screen content.
