Why would a developer create User Defined Functions in AVEVA Application Server?

Creating User Defined Functions in AVEVA Application Server allows developers to extend the standard functionality of the application. This capability is particularly valuable because it enables developers to tailor custom logic, calculations, or processes specific to the unique requirements of their application or use case. By leveraging User Defined Functions, developers can introduce enhancements that improve performance, streamline processes, or add new features that are not available through the standard functions provided by the application.

This customization allows for greater flexibility and adaptability within the application, empowering developers to meet specialized business needs without altering the core structure of the existing system. In contrast, the other options do not align with the primary intent of developing User Defined Functions; they imply intentions that would detract from the application’s robustness and capabilities.
