Overview of Public Business Events

A public event, also known as business event, is a definable logical occurrence in a business scenario. It can be a high-level occurrence such as payables invoice creation or a specialized event such as status change.

If you want to perform operations in other systems based on public events in Oracle Financials Cloud, then you can use public event features. You must enable the business event if it isn't enabled by default.

After you enable these features, the application sends a signal, along with a payload containing information about the public event, whenever an event occurs. The public event signal is also known as a public event.

The application sends signals irrespective of the source or cause of the event. For example, the application sends a payables invoice creation signal when an invoice is created using a user interface or REST API.

Integration developers and administrators can subscribe to public events from the Oracle Integration Cloud using the Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter. Then, they can use the information in the payload to configure event handlers that perform business operations. For more information about supported Financials business events and to create and add a connection to an integration, refer to the Using the Oracle ERP Cloud Adapter with Oracle Integration guide.
