First steps

Welcome to the Nios4 developer site. In this page, we will go step by step on how to create a management software (or ERP) from scratch. This way, you will be able to acquire the fundamental knowledge behind the platform.

You can explore the concepts further through the guide, videos, and examples, or by contacting us for more detailed information at the following. link

Let's get started.

1Installation

Let's start by installing and configuring Nios4 on your PC.

2Let's create the foundation.

Let's add an empty database that will be used to build our ERP.

3Let's create the main tables.

Let's create the tables that will contain the data and give purpose to our management system. In this case, we will implement a very simple order management system.

4The sections

Let's start entering our data by creating the sections of the program to access our tables.

5Personal Data and Documents

Let's assign a role to our tables by specifying whether they will serve as standard records or gather data from multiple sources.

6Let's link the tables.

Let's create the fields that will allow us to read data from one table and write it into another.

7We arrange the fields.

Let's reorganize our fields on the data sheets to make them more functional.

8Let's input the calculations.

We teach the management system how to automatically perform calculations on the values of the fields.

9Let's create the print.

Let's create the first print to see how the program works.
