Objects, properties and relationships
Tixys administration is mostly about managing objects, their properties, and their relationships to each other.
- Objects are entities which constitute your service, for example: stations, routes, timetables, tours, prices, users, and many more.
- Properties are characteristics of an object, for example: the object’s name, its unique identifier (ID) or its status.
- A relationship is how types of objects relate to each other. For example, a route consists of several stations, and a timetable contains one or more tours.
