Views allow you to define how to display, organize, and interact with the data available in the platform. Each view can take on a different form (filter, form, print, report) depending on its purpose: consultation, editing, export, or graphical representation.
Creating a view requires filling out a form that defines its main characteristics, such as the reference table, type, and visibility for other users.

To create a new view:

1. Click on Settings > Application > View & Form Management from the main menu
2. Click on New from the context menu
3. Fill out the form with the required data
4. Click Save

The form includes the following fields:

• View name: a descriptive name for the view
• TagName: the tagname is automatically generated based on the view name
• View type: select the type of view you want to create (see View Types)
• View subtype: select the subtype of the chosen view (e.g., for a Report view, the subtypes are calendar, diagram, chart, etc.)
• Reference table: select the reference table for the view, which defines the data available for use in reports
• Publish: if selected, the view will be visible and usable by other users

Not all operations are available for each view type. The following table summarizes which operations are available for each view:
