How to find the definition of Event

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Pradeep,
There's no easy answer as what triggers the event depends completely on the application involved.
 
If you know the business object you are looking for, try searching in OSS for that business object
name and the term "event" - there are a few explanatory notes out there.  Also look in the SAP Library
Help for workflow at the workflow scenarios in applications - they explain for many of the standard workflow templates
what configuration, settings, etc. are used to trigger the event.
 
You could also let us know what business object you are looking at as someone on SAP-WUG may have
used it before and be able to help you.

Hi Phil
 
Thanks for giving the info on event
 
But I am looking for FM which is connected to an event
Probably the event name be RequestedMaterial  or orderGenerated or
anything I just want to know where the FM is stored and does the event
is create, change or delete .......(In simple where does the new event
created for a business object type write the code or FM.... so that I
can see it)

If want you are trying to achieve is
"Where is a particular event is being called from"
Then try the following:
Copy the function module SWE_EVENT_MAIL.
This is the now receiver function in your event linkage.
 
Before this function sends YOU a mail,
because you just hard coded yourself as the receiver,
you also add some useful info to the text of the mail.
 
sy-tcode,   Transaction
sy-cprog, calling program,
sy-uname User,
 
 or if you are really desperate,
just smack in a message type x in this function.
 
A dump has the entire call stack, etc ;-)
 
good Luck,

Hi All
 
4.6B
I have a subtype business object which as an event created by my
colleague But I am unable to find for what the event is created and
second does the event is for create, change, save or delete also does
the event uses change document or msg. control or LIS
 
So how can I find what are the various things linked to this event so
that I can describe it to my boss
 
(for e.g. the method of business object can be described from the
program code and logic what the method is all about so how about event)
 
If any suggestion or procedure to find are welcome
 
Regards
Pradeep
