The Severance Process Background Processes

The Collection Event Activator creates a severance process when it completes a "start severance process" collection event. The severance process has one or more severance event(s). The severance process template associated with the severance process controls the number and type of events. There are 3 background processes that automate the activation and cancellation of severance events:

The Severance background processes are the Set Trigger Date (SED), Event Activator (SET), and Complete Field Events (SEC). SED sets an event's trigger date when all dependent events are complete. SET activates all events with trigger dates that is on or before the business date. SEC completes an event that is waiting for the completion of a field activity.
