This topic describes how to set up event handlers using the Process Pipeline Administration dashboard:

1. Open the default Process Pipeline Administration dashboard, or another dashboard that includes the Event Handler Management component.
2. Locate the Event Handler Management window (shown in the figure below).
   
     
3. Select an Event Scope (Global, Application, or Entity).
4. If the Event Scope is set to Global, continue on to the next step. Otherwise:
   • If the Entity Scope is set to Application, enter an application for the event handler. The grid in the lower portion of the form displays a list of all other event handlers configured for that application.
   • If the Entity Scope is set to Entity, enter an entity for the event handler. The grid in the lower portion of the form displays a list of all other event handlers configured for that entity.
     
     
5. Open a new Event Handler Management record by clicking the Add Event Handler button on the Event Handler Management Dashboard.
   • If the Event Scope is set to Entity, the Entity field inherits the entity selected and is read-only.
   • If the Event Scope is set to Application, the Application field inherits the application selected and is read-only.
      
6. Enter the event definition in the Event field.
7. Enter the process flow to fire in the Process Flow field.
8. The input properties flow down from the process flow to the event handler's Input Map.  
   
   
9. Specify the event's Sequence if the entity or application has more than one event associated with it.
   • The sequence determines the order in which multiple events are run if more than one event handler exists for the entity or application selected. This may be critical to business-specific functionality.
      
10. Configure the Input Map, as described in Configuring Event Handler Input Maps.
    • Note that for Event Handlers with a Global Event Scope, the Input Map populates automatically and cannot be edited by a user.
       
11. Save and close the record.
