View the master scripts list

Civic Platform provides some out-of-the-box master scripts. For most of these master scripts, Civic Platform defines a one-to-one relationship between the master script and the event which triggers master script execution. Civic Platform uses the same base name for the master script and the associated trigger event.

To view a list of the master scripts

  1. From Classic admin, select Events > Master scripts.

  2. On the search form, select Submit.

    The Master scripts list page displays a list of all available master scripts.

    Notes: 

    • Only a set number of master scripts display per page. Use the Pages scroll option at the bottom of the list to scroll through the complete list.

      Example

    • From the search form, you can also search for a specific Master script.

In addition to event-specific master scripts, Civic Platform provides the following master script files:

Master script Description
UniversalMasterScript Provides a template for creating additional event-specific master scripts.
ScriptTester Enables you to test script controls without triggering an event from the user interface.
INCLUDES_ACCELA_ FUNCTIONS Included by each master script during runtime. Contains all global functions provided by Accela. Do not modify this file outside of official Accela master script releases.
INCLUDES_ACCELA_ FUNCTIONS_ASB Included by each master script during runtime. Similar to INCLUDES_ACCELA_FUNCTIONS but contains Accela provided functions specific to the ApplicationSubmitBefore event in which a current record is not available.
INCLUDES_ACCELA_ GLOBALS

Included by each master script during runtime. Contains global flags that are responsible for the setup the EMSE master script environment. Each master script file, from previous framework versions, set these flags individually in the master script file.

Some examples of these global settings are enableVariableBranching, showDebug, showMessage, and useAppSpecificGroupName.

INCLUDES_CUSTOM

Contains customizations made to the master script framework. Every executed master script evaluates the script code in this file. Segregation of customizations in this file enables you to upgrade and maintain the EMSE master script framework without an impact to your customizations.

Accela recommends the use of the custom function JavaScript files within the JavaScript framework to implement customizations to the master scripts. See JavaScript scripting framework overview.
