Business Application Modeling (BAM)

Quick Start: Generate an application
This quick start guides you through generating a basic Genero business application, using the default template, that can be used to add, update, delete, and query rows in a relational database. BAM allows you to visually model your app and generates the code from the design models. You focus on the models, BAM handles the coding.

Quick Start: Generating a mobile app
This quick start guides you through generating and running a simple, one form mobile app. The Business Application Modeler (BAM) allows you to visually model your app and generates the code from the design models. You focus on the models, BAM handles the coding.

BAM Concepts
This section includes overview information about BAM.

Configuring for BAM
When using the Business Application Modeler, you can specify both a global setup and a template-specific setup.

BAM Projects
Create projects to manage your application development.

Modeling the application
Model the application by laying out the programs, forms, reports, and relationships between the entities on a BA diagram. Then, implement the programs and forms and reports to specify the details about each entity. Last, build the application to generate the code.

Modeling the database
Model the database by creating a meta-schema or extracting one from an existing database.

Working with forms
Special properties are used to specify what logic should be generated for a form and how the form should behave during the various states (DISPLAY, MODIFY, ADD, SEARCH).

Adding custom code
This section includes topics on how to add custom code to the generated code.

Modifying the look and feel
This section includes topics on how to modify the look and feel of the application.
