A background process runs periodically (at least daily) that looks for severance events with a trigger date on or before the current date. This process executes the activity associated with each event. If the event is an office event, the event then becomes complete. If the event is a field event, the event becomes "awaiting field activity completion" until the field activities are complete. At this time, the severance event is completed. Refer to
Severance Event Activator for more information.
