Setup Overview

In order to set up Lucity Web, an agency must complete these basic steps in the Lucity Administration Tool:

1. Create Dashboard Templates and custom Dashboard pages.
   • Set up users and then add Frames, data drills, reports, RSS feeds, and asset hierarchy trees.
2. Create Views that include the data that you would like to display.
   • Choose Grid Types and Grids, then, add Forms for each Grid.
3. Create Grids to display data on the Lucity Web pages.
   • Add columns and set column properties.
4. Create Forms to add new records, edit existing records, and view details about various objects in Lucity Web.
   • Add fields to your custom Forms, modify the layout, and select field properties.
   • Assign each Form to a Menu item or a Dashboard page so that they appear on Lucity Web.
   • Assign any Form you'd like to edit within Lucity Web to a Grid.
5. Assign groups to Views, Forms, and Timesheets.
6. Specify where Views, Forms, and Timesheets are to appear on the Menu.

   Note: For end-user instruction on the Dashboard and GIS Server tasks, as well as the Web, and Citizen Portal applications, see the Web Help Guide. This section explains how to set up Lucity Web after it is installed.
