Notification and Subscriptions 

Purpose

In the next section, you will learn about the notification and subscription environment in CAF Core, so that you and other developers can be notified when business entities have been modified (for example, updated or deleted).

Process Flow

       1.      Processing and publishing events with the notification dispatcher (runtime)

       2.      Change or create application-specific subscriptions (design time and runtime).

       3.      Maintain subscription information in the Subscription Configurator of the CAF Runtime Configurator. 

Example

You are creating a concept process. You want notifications to be sent when:

Ø       Assigning a person to the concept team (notification on team)

Ø       Subscribing to concepts related to a specific classification (notification to subscriber)

Ø       Assigning a person to a deliverable (owner)

Ø       Changing the assignment of a deliverable (the new and former owner should receive a notification)

Ø       Deciding on a new concept (team)

Ø       Notifying when deliverables become overdue (owner of deliverable, owner of concept)

Ø       Discussing the concept (team)
