Have you been asked to work in a custom solution but get stumped by the Claris and FileMaker terminology?
And you may even be wondering “what is a solution”?
If you do a search for “FileMaker glossary,” you will find a lot of information geared toward FileMaker developers and you may end up more confused.
This blog is for you, a non-developer, — someone using FileMaker Pro or Claris Pro systems in your daily activities.
Having the right names for the right pieces and parts of FileMaker and having a basic understanding of what those things do will help you in a number of situations, such as:
you are learning the system or training other users in your system.
you need to document processes or workflows of your system.
you are working with a developer to make improvements to your system, and you would like to talk intelligently about what these components are and how they work together.
