Event filters

Each event in the system has selection criteria, or filters, that determine whether the event has occurred. There are two levels of selection criteria.

  • The first level of criteria determines if the event has occurred. This level is chosen by Infor and is hard-coded in the event processing program.
  • The second level of selection criteria is user-controlled.

When you activate an event, you can specify additional criteria that must be met before an event action takes place. This list includes the additional filters you can set for events:

  • Warehouse
  • Customer
  • Vendor
  • Region
  • Product
  • Product category
  • Numeric data, for example, amount, quantities, and percents
  • Price data
  • Character data, alpha-numeric
  • Dates

For example, you want to be notified every time a sales order for customer #101 is canceled in Sales Order Entry. Access SA Event Manager Activate Entry and activate the oe cancelord event. Then, create an action definition for the event and use the customer # range to specify that this only applies to customer #101.
