WebCRM Application Generator

摘要

WebCRM is a Web-based CRM (Customer Relationship Management) application whose task is to help an enterprise manage customer relationships in an organized and efficient manner using Internet capabilities. We built a working prototype of WebCRM system that is based on a Dynamic Framework written in ASP.NET (Active Server Page for .NET platform) which enables the generation of GUI (Graphical User Interface) on the fly based on the logged in user's privileges. The GUI layout is rendered by reading meta-data stored in the database and creating GUI elements according to an administrator's set permissions. The framework renders navigation tabs, tables, and form controls in real-time without the need to compile or redeploy source code files. The system designed by authors enables hosting of multiple enterprises in a single database. Modifications to the GUI are customer specific and can be made in real-time by end-users without ASP.NET knowledge.
