What is an Event?

• Indication something notable has occured in the system
• Recorded in the Event Queue when the event occurs
• Examples - A record is inserted, updated, deleted, or queried - User has loggen in - Log information, warning, or error - Impersonation started

Although any server-side script can generate an event, most will be generated by Business Rules or Workflows.

Events are not actions but rather an entry in the Event Queue.

Logic must be written to respond to entries in the Event Queue and take action.
