About PhixFlow

PhixFlow is a Data Workflow Management platform which can gather data from any system, analyse and transform that data, apply business rules and then create (and if required, email) dashboards, reports and templated spreadsheets. On top of the analysis, users can configure Applications. These provide end users with controlled access to sets of configured custom forms that display linked collections of data (both the transformed data and real time data). Each application can be configured with sets of linked menus that control how users can interact with the data e.g. modifying, new data entry, opening other forms, triggering further analysis etc. have menus the collected data use and modify the collected and analysed data. configured linked PhixFlow can automatically monitor the analysis results and can update external systems directly.

PhixFlow is developed by PhixFlow Ltd., a software company based in Cambridge, UK. For more information on PhixFlow, or to contact us, go to www.phixflow.com.


About the PhixFlow Help

PhixFlow help is context sensitive so as you move through the application click  to view help relating to that form. However there are many other pages that can only be reached through the content tree (on the left here) and other links within the help system. If you find any errors in the help pages or if the text is unclear or topics are missing, please email us at feedback@phixflow.com and report the problem.

Good places to start are the Using the PhixFlow Interface page and the Menu Options and Toolbar Buttons as information here is generally applicable to all uses of PhixFlow. We also recommend that you make use of the Glossary / Index as this contains definitions for key terms and links to relevant pages.

The following list provides a brief overview of the help system. Note that you can dip into pages as and when needed or you can follow the Next links at the bottom of each page to read through the help in a logical order.
