The “Web Modules” section contains store extensions that run in the built-in Chromium browser. A web module receives context from the application (for example, the current product or order) and displays relevant information, allowing you to expand the store’s functionality.
There are two types of modules:
In the “Web Modules” section, on the left, is the “Module Catalog”. Available functions: “Launch Module”, “Reopen Module”, “Refresh Module List”, “Open Web Console”, “Close Module”, and “Open Module in Browser”. The last one opens an external module in the system browser — its address can be saved and opened on another device.
An external module may require authentication (employee login and password), in which case it can be safely opened from anywhere.
Modules are added and configured in the “Design” → “Modules and Options” section: for external modules, you set the URL, key, authentication requirements, and the list of users with access; for built-in modules — the location (products, orders, customers, scheduler). For more details, see “Modules and Options”. The general role of the built-in web module panel is described in “Basic Operating Principles”.
