How Syncek organizes your data
Organization, workspace, object, record and attribute, and how they nest.
Syncek organizes your data in five levels that nest from the outside in: your organization has a workspace, the workspace has objects, each object has records, and each record has attributes. Every table, view and import in Syncek is built from those five, so they are worth learning first.
The containers
- Organization. Your company's account. Holds your people and your workspaces.
- Workspace. One team's space inside it. Most companies run on a single one.
- Object. A kind of thing you track. See Objects and records.
- Record. One entry of an object. One customer is one record of Accounts.
- Attribute. A field on a record. See Attributes.
What connects records to each other
An attribute can point at another record. That is how a contact belongs to an account, and how the account shows its contacts back without anyone typing them twice. Those links are what turn a set of tables into a CRM.
