(NOTE: I'm aware of more than one third-party syncing solution but they are not absolutely necessary: This CAN be done without add-ons. and building it will require a fair bit of work and a lot of testing. Third, it is possible to eat your cake and have it too: that is, you can install the app on a server (running FileMaker Server), use the app without an internet connection when you don't have a connection available, and SYNC the local data when a connection becomes available. And you will definitely want to figure out how to backup your data. Of course, in that case you won't be able to share it with anybody. Also use it to access your apps on Windows and Mac computers. Second, although the FileMaker platform is really strong for multiuser solutions, you certainly CAN put your app on the same device that you have FileMaker Pro on and use it in local mode. Use FileMaker Pro to design and create custom apps for your mobile device, computer, and the web.
All my clients access my apps in their browsers, but I am still required to work in FileMaker Pro. There is an alternative way to access a FileMaker database, via your web browser but if you want to do that, your app must be hosted (using FileMaker Server). The same app (FileMaker Pro) is used both as the developer tool and as the client app. What sort of "tablet" are you thinking of? Something like a Surface Pro (or a Lenovo X12 Detachable, which is very similar)? In that case, yes, you can install FileMaker Pro on that device, develop there, and use the database there.įirst, FileMaker's approach to multiuser development is a bit unconventional.
Well, you can certainly create a fantastic inventory app in FileMaker - a basic one, an intermediate one, or a very complex one.
