Defining an Event associates a Business Process, determines the data to be passed
from the Event, and then maps specific parameters to Business Process
parameters.
The following steps take place in the Event editor, which has these sections:
Business Process, Settings, Parameters, and Parameter
Mapping.
-
Under the Settings section, either select or create the Business Process
to launch from this Event. Click on the field to select an available Business
Process, or click the Business Process link to open an editor in which
you can create one. You can not create an Event without an associated Business
Process. Once you select an existing Business Process, note that
Parameters and Parameter Mapping sections are automatically
populated with required parameters specific to that selected Business Process.
-
Under the Parameters section, add Event parameters by clicking the
Add button; assign a name and type for each parameter. This instructs
Clarify which parameters are to be passed to the parameters of the selected
Business Process. In addition to the payload, other Event parameters may
be available; this depends on the type of interface object launching the
Event.
-
Under the Parameter Mapping section, match the Business Process
Parameter with the Event Parameter. Click in the Event Parameters section
to set the Event parameter. Business Process parameters will only match with
Event parameters of the same type.
-
Click Save to complete this task.
