Actions scripts allow you to create a custom functionality e.g. a custom data entry form or process.
Action scripts can be started by a process, by another action script or by a using clicking the corresponding menu entry
Action scripts are required to contain the procedure 'Main'. This is the procedure that is called by the application. If another procedure name is applicable, this will be shown at the relevant procedure.
You can have an action script overrule a standard <Company> form, e.g. an Isah process form. This way you can have the action script process your data according to your specific needs as opposed to the way in which the data is processed by running a standard process form.
You can also program other action scripts that, for example, allow users to start Word or to e-mail a purchase order automatically.
