Request Management event controls

The option to schedule events is on the quote, order, and line item environment records (environment.ocmq, .ocmo, or .ocml). For information on editing the environment records, see the related topics.

The Schedule Events? field in the Quote Options structure sets when events are processed for categories and phases.

• If this check box is unchecked (false), events are not scheduled for processing or recorded in the message log, msglog file.
• If this check box is checked (true), and Messages/Events? in the phase record (ocmoptions) is false, the event is scheduled and recorded in the msglog, but no other processing occurs.

The option for processing messages and events is located on the quote, order, and line item Phase definition (ocmoptions) record. See Phases for details on how to access and create phase definitions.

The Messages/Events field in the Controls tab sets the controls that define when events are processed for the particular phases named.

All event names must be defined in the ocmevents file, or no event processing can occur. See Events for more details.

Events are processed when the phase of the quote, order, or line item is defined in the Phases field of the ocmevents file. If the Phase field is empty on the ocmevents record, the event is processed for all phases.

The Exec Cond option in the ocmevents record controls, at the event level, when an event is processed.
