How to Install an OnTime Extension

Installation and Setup
OnTime Extensions are add-ons that can extend the functionality of OnTime Management Suite and OnTime Dispatch. OnTime Extensions are delivered as a file with an OTEX file type. OnTime Extensions may be installed on accounts subscribed to Professional or higher plans.
Use one of the following methods to install an extension:

Method 1

  1. Double-click on the extension file (.OTEX file).
  2. OnTime will prompt for confirmation. Click the button labeled Install Extension to continue.
  3. The extension will then be installed on the local computer. Check the extension's documentation for information on how to access and use the extension from within OnTime.
Note: If OnTime is not running on the computer when an extension file is double-clicked, OnTime will start up automatically. In this case, you may need to sign in before the extension is completely installed.

  2. Choose the Tools tab from the top of the application window.
  3. Click the button labeled Install Extension.
