The Intricacies of Mosaic Input

The MOSAIC INPUT is a sophisticated GUBUS pattern, meticulously designed to facilitate the creation of complex items. These items may encompass custom components, a variety of products, detailed delivery information, and extensive calculations.


Typically, the mosaic input dominates the entire page, and it is generally recommended not to amalgamate it with other GUBUS patterns - neither with workfeed nor multipanel. Although this is not a strict rule, it is a suggested practice for optimal results.

The mosaic input fragment depicted above demonstrates the following structure:


  • Five lines for components, automatically populated through data validation patterns
  • A column for quantity, enhanced with 'x' formatting, just to improve readability
  • Price, automatically calculated using a sophisticated set of formulas
  • Total price field, automatically computed using a simple SUM formula
  • Final order text, automatically generated through the JOIN TEXT formula

...has always been a challenging aspect for any ERP-CRM system. Now, it is effortlessly addressed with GUBUS.


Utilization of Formulas in Mosaic Inputs

To maximize automation and support for manager input, GUBUS leverages the capabilities of Google Spreadsheets Formulas. The most frequently used include:


  • The INDEX formula, frequently paired with the MATCH formula, is utilized to pinpoint values within a table using a two-dimensional approach.
  • The VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP formulas are employed to return values with a single-dimensional shift.
  • The ARRAYFORMULA is used to disseminate information across multiple rows in a variety of scenarios.
  • The UNIQUE formula is instrumental in creating efficient filters for production purposes.
  • The SUM, IF, SIMIF, IFS formulas are utilized to execute sophisticated mathematical operations seamlessly.
  • In specific cases, a highly customized MAP function can be developed using the LAMBDA function.


Formulas act as a lifelinefor managing any level of complexity in a project, resolving challenges in an unexpectedly straightforward manner.


We are firmly convinced that the entire concept of the reactive formulas pattern is absolutely ingenious in our data-driven world! We genuinely appreciate it!


Mosaic Input Purification

Following the reading phase, GUBUS naturally, silently, and swiftly cleans all inputs. It empties all arrays, preserving formulas for future use. It retains all muted-on-clean data, leaving it unchanged, and deactivates all checkboxes.
