Managing subscribers using IBM® Extensibility Workbench

You can add subscribers before or after an event. You can also delete subscribers that are associated with an event.

2. From the application header, click the Development Tools icon , and select Customize from the list.

   Alternatively, you can select Customize from Outline. The Select screen to Extend window opens. The list of screens present in the current screen is displayed. For example, if you open the Order Search screen, the tree displays Order Search, Order List Screen, and others present in this screen.

   From the tree, select the screen that you want to customize, and click Extend Screen.

   Note:

   • If you cannot customize the selected screen, an appropriate message is displayed.
   • You cannot use the customize option to customize screens that contain iframes, such as the Print PDF Container screen.
   • If multiple instances of the same screen are found, by default, the first instance of the screen is selected for customization.
3. Select the screen to which you want to add subscribers.
   Note:

   • After you select a particular screen to add subscribers, you cannot select any other screen. To select another screen, click Close.
   • If you cannot add subscribers for the selected screen, an appropriate message is displayed.
4. From the Screen Outline panel, select the event for which you want to add a subscriber.
5. Click the Events tab.

   Important: To load the screen, define the methods in JavaScript methods extension file.

    Note: It is recommended that you refresh or reload the application after you save your extensions.
