Events Model
Events Model
Events are a fundamental part of production. The events model is used to map out the critical events that occur to control production. These events can be created within this application or from external systems, and can be used to control workflow execution.
Condition Events
Condition events are defined by logical expressions against variable values. When these components are set and enabled, they are monitored by the system. When expressions evaluate to true, the event occurs and subscribers to the event are notified.
Evaluation of Condition Expressions
The Trigger Settings tab allows you to determine when the configured condition expressions will be evaluated. The results of these evaluations determine whether or not the event can run.
Event Sources
Event sources are data items that you can subscribe to.
Production Event Source Properties
You can use event source properties to monitor particular events related to conditional events or workflow schedules.

    Events are a fundamental part of production. The events model is used to map out the critical events that occur to control production. These events can be created within this application or from external systems, and can be used to control workflow execution.
    - Enable an event
    - Disable an event
    - Time Events
      Time events can be set by time span or by calendar, and they can be either single or recurring events.
    - Condition Events
      Condition events are defined by logical expressions against variable values. When these components are set and enabled, they are monitored by the system. When expressions evaluate to true, the event occurs and subscribers to the event are notified.
      - Properties and Attributes of Condition Events
        The Details tab offers general information about the selected condition event.
      - Evaluation of Condition Expressions
        The Trigger Settings tab allows you to determine when the configured condition expressions will be evaluated. The results of these evaluations determine whether or not the event can run.
        Set a trigger for a conditional event
        Set up class-based events
        You can bind class properties to event variables so that an event can detect a property change in any equipment to which that class has been added.
        Create variables for a condition event
        Create an expression for a condition event
        Condition Event Expression Variables
        The Variables tab allows you to add, modify, and delete expression variables to use when building event expressions. You can define one or more variables, which can be a constant value bound to an attribute of the trigger event, or bound to external data.
        Condition Expressions
        The Condition Expressions tab allows you to create expressions using mathematical or Boolean logic.
        Event Sources
        Event sources are data items that you can subscribe to.
        User-Defined Event Source Properties
        You can use event source properties to monitor particular events related to conditional events or workflow schedules.
        Production Event Source Properties
        You can use event source properties to monitor particular events related to conditional events or workflow schedules.

        Workflow Event Source Properties
        Event sources are data items that you can subscribe to when you configure a workflow schedule. You use event sources to define when the selected workflow schedule is triggered
        Equipment Event Source Properties
        You can use event source properties to monitor particular events related to conditional events or workflow schedules.
        Material Event Source Properties
        You can use event source properties to monitor particular events related to conditional events or workflow schedules.

Event Source Work Request Properties

New Work Request

This event is signalled when a work request is created.

Following are all available properties that are specific to this event source.

Property	Data Type	Description
WorkDefinition	DirectoryResource	Specifies the work definition associated with the work request that was created or changed (depending on the event). It can be used to determine the appropriate workflow to execute in order to process the work request.
WorkRequest	DirectoryResource	Specifies the work request that was created, which is related to the event associated with the workflow schedule.
WorkRequestS95ID	String	Specifies the unique identifier of the work request.
WorkType	String	Specifies the category of work, such as Production, Maintenance, Quality, Inventory, and Mixed.
Attributes	WorkRequestAttributes	Contains the values of the attributes of the work request.

Work Request Status Changed

This event is signaled when the status of an existing work request changes.

Following are all available properties that are specific to this event source.

Property	Data Type	Description
WorkRequest	DirectoryResource	Specifies the work request that changed status, which is related to the event associated with the workflow schedule.
WorkDefinition	DirectoryResource	Specifies the work definition associated with the work request that was created or changed (depending on the event). It can be used to determine the appropriate workflow to execute in order to process the work request.
WorkRequestS95ID	String	Specifies the unique identifier of the work request.
PreviousStatus	String	Specifies the status of the work request before the change.
NewStatus	String	Specifies the updated status of the work request. The possible statuses include: Draft Unscheduled Pending Running Paused Completed Failed Canceled Unknown
WorkType	String	Specifies the category of work, such as Production, Maintenance, Quality, Inventory, and Mixed.
Attributes	WorkRequestAttributes	Contains the values of the attributes of the work request.
Location	DirectoryResource	Specifies the element in the equipment hierarchy that is associated with the work request.
