The System Trigger module is new and only ships with the Task Management module. This new Trigger Setup module has replaced our previous rudimentary trigger system, which required manual file editing in the background, and now features a user-friendly interface.
This module links a specific process (PickingSlipCreation) to a specific Task. Therefore, the script files map the data from the Trigger process (for example PickingSlipCreation) into the task.
For example: On the HTML5 Put Away screen, when you do a Purchase Receipt where a TrackID was generated, a task will be generated for each TrackID created. That information must then be passed on from the Trigger to the Task, and the script files are used to pass the information on from the Trigger to the Task.
This new System Triggers interface incorporates all our existing VBScript and the new Task Management VBScript.
There are a couple of columns within the data grid to take note of:
System Trigger – this refer to the VBScript name that is called.
Description – this is a detailed description of the script.
VB Enabled – this tick box cannot be checked, but it will be checked if the script is linked to a trigger.
Task Enabled – this tick box cannot be checked, but it will be checked if a task is linked to a trigger.
Warehouses – this column will list all the warehouses where the specific Trigger will work.
Edit – this link can be selected to start editing a specific trigger.
Let us look at the Trigger Maintenance screen when you select the Edit link in the data grid. This is typically where you will link up a specific VBScript with a specific Trigger.
