Widget-Based Portal
Every LongJump application comes with a built-in customizable Home tab that you can use to bring specific data from the application forward. With the ability to create multiple home pages, specific pages can be designated for a specific user, team or role.
For example, in an IT asset tracking application, members of the IT team may want to see basic inventory information, but members of the finance team want more data about the financial impact of assets to quarterly schedules. This can be accomplished by creating unique page views of the same data and assigning them as the default to each team or role.
View and Report Designer
LongJump's reporting engine provides a full set of options for users to dissect and hone into the data they need to make strategic business decisions or to monitor key performance indicators. Data can be filtered, ordered, color-coded, grouped, or charted into insightful management reports. The reporting engine also provides custom computed fields to generated sophisticated data computation and transformation on-the-fly within reports.
Reports can be scheduled for automatic delivery to key team members or to any email address and report data can be published to CSV, HTML, Microsoft Excel (XLS), and Acrobat PDF formats. The same report can also be included as a widget on a users' home page to act as a dashboard for key information.
Print Template Processing
LongJump provides support for HTML printing based on content in a data record. Similar to a mail-merge function, users can design an HTML page embedded with LongJump variables, to produce attractive templates for printing.

Form Layout Designer
LongJump provides field level permissions using custom layouts. This allows the definition and control of fields and their associated layouts so that they are only visible to specific teams, roles, or users.
For example, in a standard employee directory, it may be required to make basic information available to the entire organization (a person's name, title, department, direct supervisor, a photo, email, and phone). But a specific team of the company (human resources, for example) may need other data: (home address, emergency contacts, employee number, marital status, dependents, etc.). In this case the same object can be use, but with different field layouts to control who sees what.
Cross-Object Joins
LongJump provides support for joining up to three sets of data together to form reports where the data is related rather than replicated. Custom Report Categories (CRCs) in LongJump allow you to define relationships between up to three objects by leveraging specific linked fields. The CRC acts as a database join and can then be used similar to single-object Report categories including selecting fields, filtering, grouping, computing and charting. This feature produces dramatic reports without the need for a complex, external BI (business intelligences) tool.
Data Publishing
LongJump calendars, views and reports are web publishing ready. Data from the platform can be published to widget-based portals using a single-line embedded script into standard HTML pages such as blogs or websites to push dynamic data to those sites.
