that will be used to trigger the script. This selection is unavailable for rendering handlers.
Click Add method to select the desired time at which the script is run. Various phases exist when the script can run:
processBefore - Script is run before the request is processed.
processBeforeWorkflow - Only for action handlers. Executes after a request, before a process is run.
processAfter - Executes at the end of a process.
Once the desired method is selected, the Groovy file manager opens automatically,
in which the storage location of the script can be defined. The storage location is located relative to the application package in the
groovy directory. In the Groovy file manager, a new script can be created and edited, or an existing script can be selected and edited.

RenderingHandler
processBefore:
- RenderingHandler of the application
- RenderingHandler of the data group
- RenderingHandler of the page
processAfter:

ActionHandler
processBefore und processBeforeWorkflow:
- ActionHandler of the application
- ActionHandler of the data group
- ActionHandler of the page
