Model the app

The Business Application (BA) diagram allows you to model your application graphically.

In this quick start, you create a form based on a database table and implement the program.

Go to Project > src > Applicationflow and open the appflow.4ba file.
This is your Business Application (BA) diagram, which shows the flow of your program. It includes one program entity (Main) and one CRUD form entity (form).
Right-click on the Form entity and select Implement CRUD Form from Database to generate a form for the database table that you wish to access.
Select the account_record table. Use the double right arrow to add all fields to the Selected Fields list, and click Next.

The fields are added to the form, contained in a grid container.
Save the form in the $ProjectDir/src directory and insert it in the project under the src/Entities node.

Return to the appflow.4ba file.
Right-click the Main program entity and select Implement Program.
Save the program file as Main.4prg in the $ProjectDir/src directory, and insert it in the project under the Main_prg node. This file is used to generate the source code for the main function. Click OK to close the Save As dialog.
