Assigning Event Types to an Object Family 

Purpose

Not every event type makes sense for any object family. The IOITF ensures that only registered event types are handled for individual objects of a given object family.

Process Flow

After defining and registering an event type, it must be assigned to object families where occurrences of this event should be allowed. To do so, follow the steps below.

From the SAP Implementation Guide (IMG), choose Customer Relationship Management à Master Data  ® Products à Individual Objects à Individual Object Integration Framework (IOITF) à Event Type à Assign Event Type to Object Family

 

IOITF handles only those events that are relevant for object family.

Example

For example, in the High Tech Software Entitlement Demo application, events ISHT_DOWNLOAD, ISHT_EXTEND_MAINTENANCE, ISHT_MAINTENANCE_EXPIRED, ISHT_MAINTENANCE_PURCHASED, ISHT_PRODUCT_REGISTERED, ISHT_PRODUCT_RETURNED and ISHT_UPGRADE are all relevant for object family 0701.
