Advanced Life Events enable fully automated round-tripping of data. This means that client evidence is read into the datastore for an IEG script. It is then updated by the client. When the Life Event is submitted, the original client evidence that was read into the IEG script is updated. Advanced Life Events are only required when this level of automated round tripping of data is required. Under all other circumstances Simple Life Events are the recommended approach. Project Architects should consider carefully whether round tripping is required or whether the data entered by a client can be treated as new evidence to be integrated into the client's cases.
Advanced Life Events cannot be configured through the Administration user interface, they must be created by developers.
