On a high level, plugins can be used with the following requirements.

  • 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 – highly customizable module, both from plugin and scripting perspective.

  • Printing - plugin to override the core printing method that use the Crystal report engine.
