Axiell Sapphire

Guide to using and configuring the Axiell Sapphire add-on to EMu.

Sapphire is a browser-based add-on to the EMu Collections Management System.

A Form is designed and constructed by authorised users around a workflow, capturing data, editing records, creating attachments, etc., with each Form providing access to a subset of fields.
