PTC supports modularized actions and actionmodels within the system, so to find what file an action is defined in, or what action models the action is used in, there is a reporting tool that can be used.

See the Tools Overview section for more information on the Action Report and the Action Model Report.

The Action Report allows you to search for actions managed by the StandardNmActionService. You can search by several properties for the action including the label (the description), action name, and object type name.

The search supports multiple search parameters, regular expressions, and case-insensitive matching. See Action Report for more information.

The Action Model Report allows you to search for action models managed by the StandardNmActionService. You can search by action model name, description and model file. The search supports multiple search parameters, regular expressions and case-insensitive matching. See Action Model Report for more information.

There is also a debug mode that can be enabled in the user interface to find information about a particular action on a page. See Debugging for information on enabling and using this tool.

This tool reloads the action models from their XML files without having to restart the method server. See Reload Action for more information.
