About time triggered transactions
A time-triggered transaction, or agent, is a program that performs a variety of individual functions, automatically and at specific time intervals. It is not triggered by conditions, events, or user input.
There are three types of time-triggered
transactions:
- Business process transactions - responsible for processing day-to-day transactions
- Monitors - watch and send alerts for processing delays and exceptions
- Purges - clear out data that may be discarded after having been processed
You can extend the transactions provided by the application by
using one of the following mechanisms:
- User exits
- Event handlers
