IM Relationship Resolution Information Center, Version 4.2

Creating event types

When you want to add a new event scenario to process events, you may need to create a new event type to define the types of transactions or activities that are included in that event scenario, as well as the unit of measure associated with this category of event.

Before you begin:
IBM Relationship Resolution Event Manager must be enabled for your system.
About this task:
Event types are called by the complex event processor, while it processes events according to the user-defined business rules. Before an event type is used, you must also create at least one business rule that uses that event type.
Procedure:
  1. In the Configuration Console, click the Setup button.
  2. Click the Sources button.
  3. Click the Event Type button.
  4. Click the New button.
  5. Required: On the General tab, specify the name and description of the event type, the unit of measure associated with this event type, and the status of this event type (active or inactive).
  6. Optional: You can also specify additional information, such as category, sub-category, and notes about this event type.
  7. Click the Save button.
