Managing event codes

When an event occurs within Business Integration Connect, an event code is generated. Using the Event Codes screen, you can see the generated event codes and export them to other applications.

    Table 3. Event code details

    Parameter Description

    Event Code

    A read-only field that shows the unique number for this event code.

    Event Name

    A read-only field that shows the name used to identify the event in relation to the action that triggered the event.

    Internal Description

    A read-only field that describes the circumstances that triggered it.

    Visibility

    Select the users who can view the event code: Community Operator, Manager, Participant, or any combination of the three.

    Severity

    A read-only field that shows the seriousness associated with this event code, from Debug (least serious) to Critical (most serious):

    • Debug - for low-level system operations and support. Visibility and use of the debug information are subject to the permission level of the user.
    • Info - for successful system operations. These events also provide the status of documents being processed. Informational events require no user action.
    • Warning - for non-critical anomalies in document processing or system functions that allow the operation to continue.
    • Error - for anomalies in document processing that cause the process to end.
    • Critical - for services that end due to system failure. Critical events require intervention by support personnel.

    Alertable

    Select to display the Event Name in the list on the Define tab of the Alert screen. This allows an alert to be set for this event.

Saving event code names

You can choose to save only the event name in the event list (Export Names), or to save the internal descriptions (Export List) in the event list in text format. Follow these steps:

  1. Click Hub Admin > Hub Configuration > Event Codes.
  2. On the Event Codes screen, click Export Names to save the list of events with the event names only. Or, click Export List to save the list of events with their internal descriptions only.
