FlexBase allows for database design changes with minimal impact to the application itself.
FlexBase provides an extra layer of information between the user forms and the database with which FlexBase communicates. This layer is the layer that makes FlexBase flexible in that, as the design of the database changes, the FlexBase administrator would update the FlexBase configuration such that FlexBase will account for the database change. For example, if a system administrator adds a new table to the database, or a new field to an existing database table, FlexBase will automatically detect this new table or new field and provide access to this new table or new field with no additional programming to user forms. The administrator would then only need to decide which user has access to this new table and what permissions to give. This product is indeed a fully customizable database application that, upon installation, may be used to access any database, either localized or networked, of any format that is ODBC or ADO compliant.
This first installation was initially configured to use an MS Access database where legacy and archival data was stored. This database grew from 6 MB to over 200 MB within a 5 month period as usage grew and paper records were scanned an input into the database as this system has become part of the daily processing for this organization. FlexBase offers software integration with an Active Directory network for single sign on user login and password authentication. FlexBase automatically creates database forms during run time and does so by determining which tables and fields are available in the database and then drawing the necessary entry forms for the user. Since FlexBase is built to communicate with any ODBC and ADO compliant database, this tool may be used by an organization to provide visually consistent forms to multiple different databases while having the benefit of database user and table security.
FlexBase can be configured by a local administrator, to connect to any flat file or relational database including text files, spreadsheet files, CSV files, sql databases, and proprietary applications that use proprietary databases such as Quicken and Quickbooks. A user can, with minimal effort, open a form that communicates with, and adds, deletes, and updates information contained in a spreadsheet database and then switch the FlexBase connection to open a form that communicates with a sql database within seconds.
The benefit that FlexBase offers is that FlexBase can be used to make a flat file database behave like a relational database because FlexBase an programmatically assign primary and foreign key constraint columns to ensure data validation across tables. The problem with most spreadsheet databases is there is no user input validation that ensures a user is typing in what would be considered for example, a valid project number. In addition to input validation, FlexBase allows for tables to be joined to each other and presented using sub forms, where related records of a primary table are displayed in a sub table, such as customer to invoices, or invoices to invoice line items. The sub forms feature in FlexBase allows for quicker navigation through tables and records that are related to each other from a business perspective. FlexBase solves this problem by allowing an administrator to create drop down lists that ensure the user is selecting from only a correct set of records thereby eliminating key entry and typing errors.
FlexBase also allows an administrator to configure users and user groups to have certain permissions to specified tables in one or more databases including read only, add, edit, and delete permissions. The reporting engine that A1 Enterprise FlexBase offers includes pdf, rtf, and text exporting. Additional reports may be written and customized that run through a web browser. Reports can also be managed by adding and removing which users and user groups have access to which reports.
A1 Enterprise acknowledges the importance of database transaction logging. Transaction logging is especially important when, for example, a system administrator or administrator needs to find out what activity was performed on the database over a period of time, including what user(s) added, updated, or deleted what records from what tables and when. To solve this need, A1 Enterprise FlexBase comes with a database logging feature that tracks any and all database activity, what user was responsible for that activity, and on what date. This is especially useful when the database technology that FlexBase is using doesn't offer its own database logging utility, such as spreadsheets, text files, CSV files, Access databases, DBase files, Lotus files, and many other proprietary formats.
Finally, to further simplify user data processing and reporting, FlexBase allows for an administrator or programmer to create custom macros that run on certain database events such as record edits, deletions, additions, or when users runs specific commands from within the application or clicks on certain form buttons.
