Creating a Task Event

A task event is an optional object type that you can define for a task. You can define the following task events:

  • Pause

  • Resume

  • PreCancel

  • PostCancel

  • PostComplete

  • Delete

For more information, see About Event Handling, and Siebel Object Types Reference.

To create a task event

  1. Display the Task object hierarchy if necessary.

    For more information, see Displaying Object Types Used to Develop a Task.

  2. In the Object Explorer, locate the task that you want to modify.

    You cannot configure a subtask to reference an event. If the Is Subtask property of the task is set to TRUE, then you cannot add a task event to this task.

  3. In the Object Explorer, expand the Task tree, and then click Task Event.

  4. In the Task Events list, create a new task event:

    1. In the Name property, select a name.

    2. Identify a business service or a Workflow Process to handle the event.

      For more information, see Specifying a Business Service or a Workflow Process to Handle a Task Event.

    3. (Optional) Define input arguments and output arguments for the event.

      For more information, see Creating an Input Argument for a Task Event and Creating an Output Argument for a Task Event.
