Intro App Links
Through App Links you can launch specific Simplifier business applications via Deep Links / URL. Use this feature to crosslink different business applications on your mobile device. You can use Deep Links within the Simplifier Client or any mobile browser.
Scheme
simplifierclient://<action>/<value>?<param>=<value>[&<paramN>=<valueN>]
