Keywords Overview

This section provides an overview of the Keywords Module

Keywords is a module that allows for the creation and management of various lists and key/value pairs that can be used either programmatically or for capture forms. Examples of lists that can be configured are:

  • Countries
  • Leave Types
  • Departments
  • Branches

Keywords can also be used to store and reference key/value pairs. Examples of this include:

  • Creating a Keyword profile that holds the connection details for a specific server
  • Returning the email address for the Support Desk team of the company you work for

Key/Value pairs (or also known as Attribute/Value pairs) are a very fundamental thing that needs to be understood fully in order to implement best practices with programming. They are extremely important and can help alot with data manipulation and validation.
