Inconsistencies with write plug-in handler

Question

I am seeing inconsistencies with the OnFieldChangeSetDate plug-in handler. I have a number of write plug-ins that call this handler on the SetMetadata action. Everything works fine when the action (i.e., a change of status) is triggered from Publication Manager. But the plug-in does not get called when the same action is triggered from an XMetal check-in. Anyone else experienced this issue or have any suggestions for how to resolve?

Hi Mark, 
 You kinda answered it yourself, 'SetMetadata' is not a checkin operation (where a blob/file is updated). 
 See TD13SP1 - Admin.XMLWriteObjPluginConfig.xml , near the rows identified as 'CurrentAction'. 
 Best wishes, Dave

Thanks, Dave! That's it. All I needed to do was change CurrentAction='SetMetadata' to CurrentAction in ('SetMetadata',"Checkin'), and the problem is now solved.
