• Workflow Automation. Scripts can be used to automate routine tasks. The
task may be a simple login process or a complex set of steps in your host
application.
• Event Activated Scripts. There are several events within CETerm that will
run associated scripts. For example, when a barcode is read, the script
“OnBarcodeRead” will execute and will allow arbitrary processing of the
barcode data before it is submitted to the TE or web browser session.
• Key, Button, and Menu Activated Scripts. Like most other CETerm
actions, scripts can also be tied to any key combination, a toolbar button, or a
context menu.
• Timer Activated Scripts. Scripts can be scheduled to run at a future time or
run periodically.
• Host Activated Scripts. Host applications can also invoke scripts using
special commands within the TE data stream.
