Hello all.
Brand new to Aras Innovator so looking for some guidance from those in the know!
What I'm looking to do is the following:
- Create a menu item in the TOC, perhaps under the "Portfolio" heading.
- That menu item will display a list of item created
- An add button that will launch a new form so I can input data
- Save which will list the data inputted in 3 above and also persist to the database.
So maybe an example of something along the lines of what I'm trying to do. A name and address table and would like it to list entries similar to the current "Project" TOC item. So from the list above:
- Perhaps the menu item would be called "Addresses"
- Show a page/form displaying all the currently persisted names and addresses
- Click the add button which will pop up a window containing a form with fields such as name, house number, street name, locality, zip code, country, with a save button.
- Save the information back to the database.
I presume in there somewhere I'll need to create a new ItemType.
Is there any documentation or tutorials available that can get me started?
Thanks in advance.

Really you're just going to need to add an itemType and a form to go with it.
In Innovator, click Help, then Just Ask Innovator.
There should be enough info in the itemTypes section to do what you want.
