Using the Application Event System
Use the application event system to set up and maintain workflow or automated events.
For a multi-site system, be aware of this information about events:
- Event handling is limited to the site(s) contained in the application database associated with the configuration governing the event object.
- The Dispatch IDO Request event action can initiate IDO activities in another site, if it specifies a URL() that controls activities in another site.
- If an event action effects a database change that normally triggers a replication activity, the replication activity will occur when the event action executes.
- Any configuration that is being monitored by the TaskMan service must also be monitored by the Event Service.
- For on-premise installations, SyteLine Mobile and SyteLine portals require the use of workflow event handlers. If you will be using those features at a site, be sure the Event Service is monitoring that site configuration.
