Application Groups

Application Groups are a breakdown of different user flows. Each Genesis instance has the following Application Groups: Home, Admin, Config, and Help. These groups can be customized to any user flow.

Example: Use Home for the standard end-user view, Admin for Workflow Profile setup, Config for a security user flow, and Help for documentation.

Application Groups can also be renamed to represent a different user flow, for example, Planning or Reporting.

Navigation Groups

A Navigation Group represents a group of one or more Pages. Navigation Groups organize content into a process flow.

Pages

Pages display the content in the user interface. Pages have a one-to-one relationship with content. Content can be linked to a Page from existing dashboards or injected using Content Blocks.

NOTE: Because of the one-to-one relationship, you can only link one existing dashboard or inject one Content Block to each Page.
