Action and Status Settings

In Hexabase, you can change the database actions menu (actions) and status actions in the item details pop-up.

※The admin role is required to change these settings.

Action and Status​

In system development using Hexabase, efficient and versatile screen design is possible by combining the status of items and the actions that cause status changes.

For an overview of actions and statuses, please refer to feature guide > Backend feature configuration in the "State transition based BPM workflow".
