Summary


In this chapter, we went through various methods of enriching data. By adding more tags, event types, and workflow actions to your App, you can provide various enhancements for your end users, creating a unified and seamless environment. We showed you how using lookups provides a means of enhancing data, and how you can start branding your App according to your specifications. We will elaborate on these customizations as we move forward. We also looked at some methods of accelerating data and provided an example of how to do so.

In the next chapter, we will start covering the use and configuration of SimpleXML views and dashboards. We won't delve extensively into SimpleXML, but will cover some basic visualizations and how to create and use a SimpleXML form.
