The template set supports Forms, Database Management, Reports, and Web Services. Report and Web Services not for mobile apps.

Figure 1. Overview of template features

Table 1. Features. This table lists the general features of the default template set used to generate Genero applications.
Forms	Description
CRUD and Zoom forms	The user interface of a generated program is based on the forms created for the program. There are two types of generated forms - CRUD and Zoom. See Add Forms.
Form states	See Form behavior in CRUD states
Functionality	See Enable and disable CRUD logic
Lookups	See Lookup fields
Pre-filled comboboxes	The values for a ComboBox list can be automatically retrieved from a database table. Typical usage includes providing a list of state or country values. Define a dynamically populated ComboBox
Data management	The generated code manages query by example (QBE), default values, multiple level data sets, all database operations through the database entity (Database meta-schema (4dbx)), data set key list in memory, and up to date checks before editing. See Modeling the database.
UI actions management	The generated code manages a Toolbar and menu and the action visibility and enabling, depending on the state of the program. See Default actions, Default Topmenu and Toolbar
Field activation	See Field activation.
Database Management	Description
Constraints	See Database meta-schema (4dbx)
Serials	See Managing SERIALs in a generated application
Table operations	See Default actions
Nested transactions	See Understanding what gets generated
Concurrency	See Managing concurrency
Reports	Description
Database management	See Implement reports
Designs	See Add a Report Design Document (4rp)
Web services	Description
CRUD services	A service can be created either from a CRUD form or from a Zoom form. From a CRUD form the web service can have Create, Read, Update, and/or Delete operations. From a Zoom form, operations are limited to Read. See Create service from a form.
Database level services	See Modeling the database
