Displaying and Handling Process Triggers

Every time an event that could be a trigger occurs, for example, a line station order (LSO) that is completed, that information is stored, even if no process is actually triggered by this event.

If you press the Start button, LN checks every stored record to see whether the stored event must trigger another process. LN knows whether another process must be triggered by checking the Process Trigger Definition (tiasl8100m000) session. When a process must be triggered, LN triggers the process. When a process has been triggered, that record is deleted.

This session will always remain active, checking for new triggers until you press ESC or until you close your B-Shell.

If an error occurs while processing a trigger, LN logs the error, and you can view it with the Assembly Messages (tiasc0501m000) session.

Note: You can use the Handle Process Triggers (tiasl8211m000) session to start the process (of checking and triggering) on an as-needed basis. This method makes it possible to run the process once, without the session remaining active to continually check and trigger processes. With the Handle Process Triggers (tiasl8211m000) session, you can also set up a job, so the process is run at regular intervals, such as every 10 minutes.
