Process Definitions: Raise Events Tab

Raise Events and Wait Events are not specific types of event objects. Rather, they are fields on a Process Definition or Chain Definition. A Process Definition or Chain Definition with a Raise Event will raise that event when the process reaches a state that you configure.

The Raise Events tab of the Process Definition editing pop-up window includes the following controls.

Field Description
Event Definition The event the process should raise when it reaches the specified status.
Raise Comment

The comment to be automatically logged by this process when the Raise Event is raised. The default raise comment is Event raised by process:${jobid} (${jobdescription}) going to status ${jobstatus}.

The Raise Comment field supports the following substitution parameters.

  • ${jobid}: The ID of the process raising the event.
  • ${jobdescription}: The name of the process raising the event, as displayed in the Process Monitor.
  • ${jobstatus}: The status of the process at the time it raised the event.
Status To Raise On The process status that will trigger the Raise Event.
Error Code This field is enabled only if Error is selected from the Status To Raise On dropdown list. Lets you specify an error code to be logged.
Only Raised When > Time Window Lets you specify a Time Window within which the Raise Event can be raised. The Time Window must be open in its assigned time zone, or in the default time zone if the Time Window does not have a time zone.
Only Raised When > Expression Lets you control whether the process raises the Raise Event using a Boolean REL expression. For example: =Event.isEventRaised('MyPartition.MyEvent1') || Event.isEventRaised('MyPartition.MyEvent2')
