Synerise documents are objects that allow users to build mobile applications or create single elements to display in the applications for example a simple information about ongoing discount season. A screen view lets you display the content of documents in a mobile application. This way, you can create and deliver the content dedicated to defined customer groups and also group the documents and use those group in the further communication.

In this use case, you will display an image that contains information about discounts available for all customers. The image will be included in the body of a document, and the whole document will be published by means of a screen view.

Prerequisites

Upload an image with the information about discounts, you can do it in Data Management > Files

3. Optionally you can choose the Group to which you add your document. In this case we focus on single promotion.
