Basic Business customization Module

This module is the soul of the system. Its main function is to let us define the business logic object. You can simply understand it as a table, but in fact its concept is much wider than that of a table. Face object technology is currently the most popular technology for systematic information structure definition and logic writing. This module restores the object-oriented technology to the extreme.
The functions of this module include:
Create a business object function: We write out the corresponding business objects through communication with you and business demand survey. The framework will automatically generate the corresponding view (Interface) based on the business objects ).
Verification rule function: and data requirements in the use of software, such as: some content is required, the age value range, email format, and so on, all of which exclude incorrect data. Of course, it can be applied to very complex business logic.
Visual Control: whether the attributes of certain business objects are visible, changeable, highlighted, and controlled under specific conditions. For example, the profit column of a lost sales order is highlighted in red.

2. Permission Module

The permission module uses the authentication method and security system type to locate the functions of the permission system. That is, the combination of the following two items is the real permission system. Of course, the following content is done by us. End users only need to know about it.
Note: In the following description, "user" refers to the operator and the operator of the system.
1. Verification Method:
The Framework provides standard and centralized authentication methods.
Standard Test method: the business system we develop to manage users and roles. We can create roles and users to meet the needs of business systems.
Integrated Identity Authentication: Refers to a user system of a computer or a user system of an active domain. However, roles and permissions can be controlled by the system.
2. Security system type:
(1) simple method: the user has less information and no need to set permissions. It is determined in the code. Advantage: the end user does not need to care about permissions and has no operation complexity. It can be customized.
(2) Complex Mode: the user has a large amount of information, such as name, phone number, and address. It can be customized. Advantage: You can configure permissions for any business object, including menu view, new, delete, modify, read, and write permissions.
(3) proxy mode: the user information can be first described in the preceding two methods. The permission system has the most functions except as described in (2, you can control whether the business objects with certain conditions have permissions and whether the attributes of several business objects have the permission to read or write.
