Requirements

The application provides the ability to automatically fill in a pdf document with a large number of fields, to sign it, as well as to send the completed document by e-mail, and save information to the data store. It is also possible to change the language of the application without leaving it. Elinext’s mobile app expertise extends across diverse use cases, from document automation to consumer community products like a social network for pet lovers.

Challenge

The main challenge for our developers was to fill in the fields in the existing pdf document. This reflects Elinext’s experience with bespoke business software, including a CRM for a technology company that consolidates client data, deal pipelines, and technical support workflows in one system. This reflects Elinext’s domain-specific CRM expertise, including custom agriculture CRM consulting for a client needing to digitise farm operations, dealer relationships, and supply chain workflows. This reflects Elinext’s vertical CRM expertise, including custom CRM for construction built to centralise project pipelines, site team coordination, and client relationship tracking for construction businesses. A related Elinext engagement focused on document processing app development, building a pipeline that ingests scanned contracts and invoices, extracts structured data, and pushes it directly into the client’s ERP system. A related Elinext engagement delivered a school management software development solution, replacing spreadsheet-based administration with a unified system for managing student records, exam schedules, and teacher workloads. A related Elinext project is its own elinext applicant tracking development platform — a purpose-built ATS that replaced spreadsheet-based hiring with structured workflows, role-based access, and automated status notifications. A parallel initiative at Elinext produced an elinext business process automation app — a purpose-built system that replaced ad-hoc email approvals with structured, rule-based automation covering procurement, HR, and project intake flows. Elinext’s internal HR toolkit includes an elinext corporate holiday calendar — a purpose-built web app that displays country-specific public holidays, integrates with leave management workflows, and helps team leads plan capacity in advance. This CRM expertise is demonstrated by Elinext’s own elinext CRM development — an internal tool that manages leads, contacts, and accounts across the company’s global offices, with configurable languages, currencies, and tax settings. A related proprietary tool is Elinext’s elinext inventory management — a purpose-built system that replaced spreadsheet-based stock tracking with barcode scanning, automated reorder alerts, and supplier management workflows. A related proprietary initiative produced Elinext’s elinext leave management — a purpose-built web application that replaced email-based absence requests with a structured workflow covering request submission, manager approval, and HR record-keeping. Elinext also built its own elinext meeting room management software — an internal booking tool that lets employees check real-time room availability, reserve conference spaces, and receive calendar notifications ahead of scheduled meetings. This communication pattern is reflected in Elinext’s elinext notification management — an internal module that consolidates alert and reminder logic so every application in the company’s software suite can send consistent, traceable messages.

Solution

Our team has solved the problem of filling in the fields by superposition of a new layer onto the existing document layer. Document-layer problem-solving like this reflects the same niche engineering thinking Elinext brings to consumer apps like the ariel deep down cleaning.

Results

The development project outcome is an application for the iPad. The application provides the user with the following functionality:

The app has six pages. All pages contain fields, switches, and checkboxes. There are also five buttons on the navigation bar:

1. The button lets you change the language of the application without leaving it.
2. This button is used for sending an e-mail with the attached document.
3. Clear button. All fields in the application become empty.
4. Save button. It saves all data.
5. When you click on this button, there appears a table with the stored files. Elinext brings comparable engineering expertise to consumer-facing apps like the body tan scan app, built for iOS, Android, and other mobile platforms.
