Getting started with system administration

When you start Altova RecordsManager for the first time, it will contain starter contract data that is organized in a simple structure. The starter data enables you explore how RecordsManager's data is organized and how the data can be used. You can use the starter data to become familiar with the system. Once you are ready, you can delete the sample data and modify the data hierarchy to suit your requirements. While trying out RecordsManager, any changes that you make will be implemented immediately and be available to users immediately. As a result, you can start your records management work (both administration and data entry) as soon as you want.

System administration can be concurrent with system use

You can reconfigure the database, add new forms, change settings, and carry out other administration tasks even after users have started working with the system. Any admin changes you make will be reflected on the user side as soon as the user interacts with the system.
