Called Event and Call External Event Prototype

OIPA now allows Events in a transaction to generate an Action that results in triggering an event configured in a BR associated with the transaction. This feature is provided to cater to a situation where the action to be performed in the target BR is to be triggered on an event defined in the transaction but the action to be performed is also dependent on the values in one or more fields in the target BR.

 

This functionality will be supported by defining an Action in the target BR (MultiField BR is used to demonstrate the capability in this case) as a CALLEDEVENT with an ID attribute. Such a called event defined in the target BR can be triggered from the transaction through an Action of type CALLEXTERNALEVENT which is defined in the transaction with the same value in the ID attribute.

 

Currently this feature is supported in MultiFields BR and TransactionAllocationScreen BR. This may be extended to other associated BRs in future.

 

Scenario

In a specific transaction, a specific event to assign value or validate values in a Multifield in one or more instances of the multifield is required to be triggered on the basis of a specific event inside the transaction. The event is dependent on the values in both the transaction field and the multifield values.
