Different types of Applications creation

Basically there are two types of applications can be created using Application Designer:

1. Workflow based Application
2. Non-Workflow based Application
3. Custom Application

Workflow based Application can have n number of Workflows attached to the application, and every execution activity (either getting data / data structure from database or putting data / data structure into database) in this application is associated with one of the workflows state in this application.

Non-Workflow based Application doesn't have Workflows, and every execution activity in this application is either getting data / data structure from database or putting data / data structure into database.

Custom Application is just like a folder to the list of custom modules, it doesn't support any execution activity at application level.

First two types of applications (Workflow and Non-workflow based) can have again one of the following Frameworks associated:

1. Node Framework - represents data form (one to many relational fields)
2. Relational Framework
   1. Hierarchy - represents parent, child, alternate parent and alternate child relationships and each node in this relation is associated with a data form (one to many relational fields)
   2. Process - represents flow of work and each node in this flow is associated with a data from (one to many relational fields)

That means there are 2 types, which again can have 3 frameworks, plus a custom application, so Application Designer can create 7 different types of applications. The list is here:

1. Custom Application
2. Workflow based with Node Framework Application
3. Workflow based with Hierarchy Framework Application
4. Workflow based with Process Framework Application
5. Non-Workflow based with Node Framework Application
6. Non-Workflow based with Hierarchy Framework Application
7. Non-Workflow based with Process Framework Application

Here are some examples of above application types:

1. Application Designer is an example for Non-Workflow based Hierarchy Framework application
2. Workflow Designer is an example for Non-Workflow based Process Framework application
3. Configuration Setup is an example for Non-Workflow based Node Framework application
4. Application Object Migrator is an example for Workflow based Node Framework application
5. TPM Standard Workflow Application is an example for Workflow based Hierarchy Framework application
6. Custom Application and Workflow based Process Framework application is not yet configured in Triniti TRI2 Portal
