Thank you for your understanding and patiencePlugins are code components that add capabilities to an existing program without impacting that program’s core code. We allow a user to inject specific logic into the system in particular areas of the software to enhance default functionality.
On a high level, plugins can be implemented in the following modules.
Receiving - Imports of data (e.g., LCTs) and Scales configuration
Sales Orders and Jobs - Custom Auto Reservation Rules (rules around what stock must be picked from where) (for more information, refer to the Advanced section/video)
Checkout – Scales configuration
Transport Management System – highly customizable module
Task Management System is a highly customizable module from a plugin and scripting perspective.
It is used where critical parts of the system typically integrate with 3rd party systems or pieces of logic that require some custom development.
All configurations for plugins happen on this screen. This is where a specific plugin (the developed .dll file) will be linked to a specific process in the system.
Select the Plugin Name drop-down to select one of the allowed processes to link a plugin to.
Enter a display name for the configuration in the Display Name field.
Select Tab
The Plugin Details data grid will load with information about the specific plugin.
The next step is to enter the file name, which is the compiled DLL the developer must create, in the DII FileName field. Ensure to include the .DLL extension as well.
These .dll files must first be saved in the DATASCOPE WMS server under C: / Program Files (x86) / DATASCOPE / DATASCOPE WMS WebAPI / Plugins folder, before they can be used.
| Info |
|---|
Note: The extension .dll must form part of the file name, and the name must have no spaces. |
| Info |

Note: If the file name entered in the Dll FileName field is different from the compiled DLL saved then the plugin will not work. |
Select Save
A pop-up will appear, stating that a Plugin has been amended
This process applies a custom plugin, written by a developer, to a specific area within the software.
All newly configured plugins will appear in the Configured Plugins data grid. This list will grow over time as you create and configure more plugins.
The data grid will indicate the following:
Display Name – This is the name we created when creating a custom plugin.
Dll FileName – This is the .dll file developed when creating the new custom plugin.
Name – This is the name of the controlled area (Type) within the software where plugins are allowed.
Application Name – This refers to the specific module where this plugin can be used.
Linked Action – This refers to a button or link in a module that will use the plugin custom code.
| Info |
|---|
Note: If there are errors in the .dll file, the user will see a pop-up message when selecting the Linked Action button in a module. |
