The Event identifier is a name assigned to the event characterized by the current rule’s Runtime Scheduling parameters (such as prerequisite conditions, or time considerations). This name is for identification purposes only. It has no effect on rule processing.
This option is particularly useful for time-initiated events and pro-active processes. For example, actions can be performed at a specific time of day or at a cyclic interval. For information regarding events with a cyclic interval, see INTERVAL: Runtime Scheduling Parameter. A message or command does not trigger Event rules; instead the specified Runtime Scheduling parameters do.
The ON EVENT statement can also be used to perform an action upon the fulfillment of an IOA prerequisite condition (specified in the IN Runtime Scheduling parameter).
