Infor Smart Office

Customers who use Infor Smart Office can make configuration changes in these ways:

  • Startpad: A group of shortcuts to applications. On-site administrators can create and administer startpads for their user community. (Users can also create their own private startpads.)

  • Personalization control: On-site administrators can control access to each of the many personalization options that Infor Smart Office makes available to end-users.

H5 Enterprise

Customers who use H5 Enterprise can make configuration changes in these ways:

  • Startpages: A group of shortcuts to applications. On-site administrators can create and administer startpages for their user community. (Users can also create their own private startpages.)

  • Personalization control: On-site administrators can control access to each of the many personalization options that Infor H5 Enterprise makes available to end-users.

Infor Mashup Designer

Customers who use Infor Smart Office can further enhance the user experience by using the Infor Mashup Designer.

Infor Mashup Designer is a menu-driven tool intended for on-site administrators.

Using Infor Mashup Designer you can build composite applications that combine forms, visualizations, and data from different sources to make a task or process easier and more efficient for the user.

Infor Mashup Designer lets customers change the look-and-feel of a form as well as change functionality by, for example, combining fields from multiple forms into a new form. This is a way to save users from having to navigate across multiple forms to perform their tasks. It also streamlines their experience by eliminating fields that are not needed.

Mashups can also be published as web applications and run together with H5 Enterprise.
