Registering extensions
To register new extensions Planon administrators have to go through the following steps:
Procedure
1. Go to SX Configuration.
2. Click Extensions, if you need to register a solution extension. For registering a task user extension, select Task user extensions.
3. Click Reload on the action menu to load all the available extensions.
4. To add a single extension, click Add on the action menu.
5. Complete the relevant fields, in the data panel section. For a description of these fields, see the following table:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
Class name | Enter the exact name of your extension, or select the class name of a solution extension (SX) from the pop-up. The pop-up displays all the unregistered SXs that are loaded via an OSGI bundle. You cannot select SXs that are registered via classpath; these have to be entered manually. |
Is available | Indicates whether the SX is available. |
System code | Displays a generated code to identify the SX. |
Business object type | Displays the BO type for which the SX works. |
Description | If a description of the extension has been defined in the programmed code, this field will automatically display it. |
Update count | Displays an incremented value indicating the number of times this field has been updated. |
Usages | Displays all the business objects where the extension is linked in FieldDefiner. It is available only in the Extensions step. |
6. Click Save.
 | You must link the extension to a business object in Field Definer to execute it on an action of a specific business object. For task user extensions, you must add the user extension as a task user extension in the Scheduled tasks TSI. |
