Login script

[mstokes]

Does anybody know of a way of running a script as soon as a user logs in?
I want to be able to get a field value from the operator record using rtecalls and pop it into a global variable for use in that session.

In the past I have done it off the user's main menu. eg. The user clicks on "problem queue" but it actually calls my script which does some stuff and then sends them off to the problem queue.

This time the value I need is required before they do anything in the session so it would be a bit cumbersome to run this type of script off every menu item.

Add what You need on login.DEFAULT formatctrl.

Use ADD condition to run it.

Be really carefull and do not log off until You have testet with a second session that You can login. Making a mistake in this formatctrl can cause You not to be able to login.

You should also be able to test the new formatctrl by naming it login.USERID for example login.falcon then this formatctrl should run when falcon logs in.

Thanks Tommy.
That works great. I also found that you can select the "Run Script" checkbox and put the name of the script in the initialization section. eg. $script.name="GetOperatorSyscat"
