To Create or Update an Event
Note: For seeded events with a customization level of Limit, you can only update the event status. For seeded events with a customization level of Core, you cannot update any properties; you can only view the event definition.
Note: Your Oracle Applications installation may include seeded events owned by Oracle Applications products that you have not licensed. For such events, the Update Event page displays a notice that the event is not licensed. Oracle Workflow will not execute any subscriptions to these events.
2. Enter the internal name of the event in the Name field. The internal name is case-sensitive. The suggested format is a compound structure of identifiers separated by periods (.) as follows:
<company>.<family>.<product>.<component>.<object>.<event>
3. Enter a display name for the event.
4. Enter an optional description for the event.
5. Select Enabled or Disabled as the event status. If you disable an event, its definition remains in the Event Manager for reference, but you cannot use the event in active subscriptions.
6. If you are defining an event that occurs on your local system, enter the Generate function for the event. The Generate function is a PL/SQL procedure that can produce the complete event data from the event name, event key, and an optional parameter list. See: Standard API for an Event Data Generate Function.
Enter the Generate function in the following format:
<package_name>.<function_name>
7. Identify the program or application that owns the event by entering the program name in the Owner Name field and the program ID in the Owner Tag field.
8. You can review the customization level for the event.
- Core - No changes can be made to the event definition. This level is used only for events seeded by Oracle Applications.
- Limit - The event status can be updated to Enabled or Disabled, but no other changes can be made to the event definition. This level is used only for events seeded by Oracle Applications.
- User - Any property in the event definition can be updated. This level is automatically set for events that you define.
9. Select the Apply button to save the event. You can also select the Cancel button to return to the previous page without saving the event.
