Controlling Event Creation

Introduction

Statistic views are defined by event definitions for the period being reviewed. Event definitions capture transactions that occur across different modules and present the count or values within the views. You can control event creation by preventing the creation of entries for particular events.

To prevent event creation:

  1. From the CRM ADD-ONS menu select the Event generation setup option.

    The CRM Events selection form is displayed.

  2. Select the event or events in the Events to be generated list that you want not to be generated and click the Add event Next2.gif button, or click the Add all events resetFast.gif button to select all the events.

    The selected events are transferred to the Events not to be generated list.

    Tip: You can select an event or events in the Events not to be generated list and click the Remove event VCRLeft.gif button to move an event back to the Events to be generated list, or click the Remove all events updateFast.gif button to move all the events back.

  3. Select File > Save from the menu or click the Save Save.gif button.

    An Event definitions saved successfully message is displayed.

  4. Click OK, followed by Exit.

    You are returned to the CRM ADD-ONS menu with the updated definitions list saved.
