The system allows you to set up incoming and outgoing event notification parameters. These events require some kind of a response from the system.

The system response can take the form of:

  • Storing the event in the database, to be viewed through the Event Viewer activity (see Event Viewer)

  • Notifying, a defined user, via an e-mail message

  • Displaying a notification of a real-time event message in a POD (see Real-Time Warning)

  • Automatically clearing an event so it is not viewable in the Event Viewer activity but is still in the database itself

  • Automatically deleting an event from the database

Implementation Considerations

When you set up events, you decide the following:

  • What types of events you want the system to trigger and how you want these event types to be handled

  • Whether you want to send e-mail event notifications

  • Whether you want to display a real-time event to the POD if yield processing and consecutive identical nonconformance criteria are not met

  • Whether you want an operator to view and/or clear events

  • What types of notifications you want the system to send or ignore

  • What type of event and event activity you want to occur if yield processing and consecutive identical nonconformance criteria are not met

  • Whether an event is automatically or manually cleared or closed

  • Whether the clearing of an event requires a corrective action code
