A flash can be associated with any object, table, or view in Dovetail Agent. Use this form to describe objects which are associated with flashes.
It might not seem obvious why a flash should be associated with a view, but it can be very useful. For example, suppose that you want a site table to have flashes. Regularly, you would just associate the flashes with the site table. But you might want an end-user to be able to either sort or view the sites by attributes other than those on the site table. For example, you might want to find all of the sites in a particular state or country. Using the base site table, these attributes are not available. However, if you use a view (such as site_view), all of those fields would be visible.
