Configuring transaction events

Configure transaction events to define the event-processing behavior for a transaction. Transaction events determine which events the transaction monitors and processes.

About this task

Transaction events are the foundation of event-condition processing. After you create an event, you can configure the event handler that controls how the transaction responds when the event occurs.

Before you configure transaction events, create a transaction or open an existing transaction. For more information, see Creating transactions and Modifying transactions.

1. Open a transaction.
2. Select the Event conditions tab.
3. On the Events tab, create an event or select an existing event.
   • To create an event, click Create event.
   • To modify an existing event, select the event.
4. Configure the event properties.
5. On the Events tab, locate the event for which you want to configure an event handler.
6. Click the overflow menu icon () and then click Configure event handler.
7. In the Event handler setup window, use that canvas to configure the event handler.
8. Click Save.

Results

The event configuration is saved and applied to the selected transaction event.
