Aptify includes a scripting engine that executes user-defined scripts in several areas within the product. The system centralizes these scripts in a Scripts service. The standard Aptify installation supports scripting in the following entities:
- Message Parts (see "Message Parts" in the Admin Guide)
- Message Templates (see "Message Templates" in the Admin Guide)
- Rule-based Process Flow Steps (see the Aptify Process Pipeline Guide)
- Field Validation (see "Validation Tab" in the Admin Guide)
- Event Definitions (see the Aptify Process Pipeline Guide)
- Price Rules (see the Aptify Product Setup and Administration Guide)
- Alert Types (see "Alert Types Service" on page 581)
Each of these entities has an embedded link to the Scripts entity. (See "Embedded Objects" in the Admin Guide for more information.) Also, the Code Script control appears on the form for each of these entities. This control displays the user-defined code in standard VB.NET scripting format using colors and indenting to identify keywords and other code elements, as illustrated in Figure 11.88.
Note that the Database Objects service does not store SQL text in the Scripts service even though it uses the Code Script control.
