Event profiles data item conditions

Other conditions can also be included in an event profile that must be met before the profile is invoked. These conditions apply to a limited set of common data items.

For example, you might specify that a profile only applies to a particular business unit as follows: If Business Unit = PK1

You can use the Or command in an event profile on the line following an If, so that a condition can be based on different data fields, for example: 

If Business Unit = PK1
Or Operator Group = PK1

There is no limit to the number of event profiles you can define. However, a maximum of 1000 relevant profiles are loaded and filtered at run time. Only the event profiles and rule sets that relate to the current function are loaded into memory, therefore the careful and concise structure of an event profile can control a function more efficiently and improve performance significantly.

For example, if a large number of rule sets apply to an event profile but only relate to a particular business unit, it is far more efficient to check the business unit in the event profile than to check it within every rule set.
