Event Profiles (EVP)

When the required information has been entered, click OK and the condition appears in the command list section in the bottom part of the form.

To enter another condition, click Create and then enter the condition fields. For example, you may need to add a call point condition to restrict the event profile to a particular stage of the function's processing.

When you have entered all the required conditions, click Exit to return to the header form. You can then add or maintain another event profile, or click Exit to leave the function.

Note:

You can use the Save As action button to copy an event profile to a new code, which can then be amended as required. Any rule sets that have been defined for the event profile are also copied.
You must click OK or press Enter after each of the following fields to accept the choice you make.
If the event profile is locked, a message is displayed informing you that the event profile is in use. To clear this message, log in as the user who is editing the event profile, and select Clear Amendment in Progress from the action menu.

Select the IF or OR command. The first statement must be an IF statement.

Data Item
