General considerations

One of the main goals of Docxpresso is to help you organize and access the data supplied by your end users whenever they fulfill any document.

Whenever any end user interacts with a Docxpresso template besides generating the corresponding document all provided data is stored in Docxpresso databases so you can parse it and analyze it at your will.

IMPORTANT: although Docxpresso has multiple tools to import and export data from and to different third party tools in this section we will mainly center in the backoffice tools embedded within Doxcpresso. In order to know more about data exchange with external sources, please, consult the Developers documentation.

In order to browse the data associated with different uses of every template you should first click in:
