Widgets for AppWorx
AscendoSoft offers Widgets for those common everyday AppWorx (formerly Applications Manager) tasks that can be difficult to automate or that you never quite find the time to focus on.
- It can be difficult to detect errors in scripts, which can cause delays in batch processing
- Scripts can be difficult to maintain and keep current
- Testing is difficult since environments often have different job definitions and hard-coded parameters
Each Widget:
- installs quickly
- is fully object-oriented
- is fully parameterized to support all features
- supports full error-checking
File Actions Widget
The File Actions Widget plugs into Applications Manager to automate common file & directory actions. The job automates the following:
- Move files
- Copy files
- Xcopy files
- Rename files
- Delete files
- Create directories
- Remove directories

WinZip Widget
The WinZip widget automates compression/decompression of WinZip files. This is often a critical step in file transfer activities.

PGP Widget
The PGP Widget automates file encryption/decryption – another process that is often critical to the file transfer process.

SQL Server Widget
The SQL Server Widget allows Application Manager to run scripts against SQL Server Databases. This is critical in processes such as automating data warehouse loads and integrating CCM with Fiserv DNA. It executes Transact-SQL jobs.

WinSCP Widget
The WinSCP widget automates secure file transfer between a local and a remote computer. For secure transfers, WinSCP uses Secure Shell and supports the SCP protocol in addition to SFTP.

The PowerShell widget automates PowerShell scripts in AppWorx
- Support for named and positional parameters, and PowerShell switches, as prompts in AppWorx
- Elevate to Administrator as necessary
- Full error checking and logging
