Viewing application events associated with an IDO or a task

Application events are associated with an IDO or a background task through the Applies To Objects field. To view the application events that are related to an IDO or a task, see the Workflow Summary tab or section on the IDOs form and the Background Task Definitions form.
The Workflow Summary tab contains this information:
  • The list of application events for a specific IDO or task
  • The corresponding number of event handlers for an application event

When you select an event name on this tab, the Event Handlers form is displayed. This form contains a list of event handlers for the specified application event. The list is filtered based on the Applies To Objects field value.

The Applies To Objects field value can be blank, except for framework IDO events. A blank value means that an application event is applicable to every single background task. In this case, an Event Handler Count in each of the background tasks is specified on the Workflow Summary tab.

Note: Application events display on the Workflow Summary tab only if they are one of these:
  • Defined as a Framework IDO Event on the Events form
  • TaskOnPerform
  • TaskPostPerform
  • TaskOnPerformFailed
For example, on the IDOs form, select AccountAuthorizations. On the Workflow Summary tab, you can see the IdoOnItemUpdate event and the event handlers count of 2. When you click the IdoOnItemUpdate hyperlink, you can view and modify the list of event handlers that are associated with the application event.
