12. Page 12 Intercompany Documents Module Webinar-Openbravo, ERP Engineering Development Team Development Technique: What is Extension Point? A bit more technical: Trigger that can be set up in any PL Procedure and that can be activated from the extension module to call PL Procedures included in it Core Module Module N Module M

14. Page 14 Intercompany Documents Module Webinar-Openbravo, ERP Engineering Development Team Development Technique: How to use Extension Point? Code external PL procedure following these rules: The procedure only has one input parameter Has to retrieve needed parameters that are available from “exchange” table It has to update the output parameters in the “exchange” table Possible exceptions are just raised Subscribe Module PL procedure to the Extension Point Declare the name of the Module procedure in AD AD || Setup || Extension Points || Extension Point | Procedures
