Configuring Runtime Event Manager

Oracle supports triggering workflows based on runtime events such as Write Record, which gets triggered whenever a record is written. Using a runtime event allows you to incorporate configured workflow functions into actual applications.

Note: For details, see Siebel Events Management Guide.

The example in this section describes a runtime event that triggers a workflow when a new contact record is added by users through Siebel Financial Services Application. In the following procedure, a runtime event as well as the corresponding action is defined.
