Round Infinity allows to do both i.e. create your own new custom applications from scratch or modify the out-of-box applications. The steps mentioned in this guide are applicable for both.

 

How It Works:

The business applications are created or modified using the Web Desktop. Each business applications are secured by groups. Records can be entered into the business applications using the mobile responsive self-service portal. As soon as you give access to a business application using groups, the business application is immediately availabe in the mobile responsive self-service portal for data entry. Only the users belonging to access groups can access & enter records in the application.
