Definition

An event is an incident that has occurred.

For examples of events, see Event .

Use

You use events in the application system to define whether changes to application objects or processes are relevant to supply chain event management (SCEM-relevant).

The application system sends the SCEM-relevant data for these events to SAP Event Management (SAP EM).

The application system can create multiple events at the same time for a change to an application object. SAP EM can also process multiple events in the event handlers.

Example Example

You use two different events for a delivery process to report the following for an event handler:

End of the example.

  • The completeness of a delivery

  • A change to the delivery date of a delivery item
