Layouts

In the Mobile Application Platform framework, a layout is the actual mobile application, and it can contain one or more application pages.

The end result of building a layout is a URL that’s used to invoke the application.

PeopleSoft documents define the data structure for Mobile Application Platform applications. To add a Mobile Application Platform application to the database, you must specify a PeopleSoft document that contains the data structure for the application.

A sample of items that you define for each page in a layout includes:

• Elements that appear on the page. For example, text, check boxes, buttons, and other page controls.

• Main layout classes, style, and color themes.

• Content classes, styles, and color themes.

• Page transitions. For example, flip, slide, turn, and so on.

• For each page in a layout, you specify the elements to appear on the page. For example, text, check boxes, buttons, text fields, and other page controls.

PeopleSoft provides a Layout Designer for building a mobile application.
