Add, edit, or remove a custom notification event
Add a custom notification event

Prerequisite

A PowerShell v2 or Active Directory target system.

  1. Go to Business > Custom Events.

  2. Click plus_add.png Add.

    A new custom event is created.

  3. Enter values for the following settings:

    Name

    A name for the custom event.

    System

    The target system that the custom event is for.

    Caution

    Custom events are only supported for PowerShell v2 target systems and Active Directory target systems.

    Action

    The entitlement action that the custom event will fire for. Currently, only Account-related actions are supported.

  4. Click plus_add.png Add in the Conditions pane to define one or more conditions that trigger the event.

    Tip

    If a custom event has multiple conditions, they are evaluated using AND logic. If a condition that takes multiple values (Contains, Equals) has more than one value, those values are evaluated using OR logic.

    For each condition, specify the following:

    Mode

    The condition that the chosen Field will be tested against, to determine whether this event fires.

    • Has Value: Fire if the field is non-empty.

    • Is Updated: Fire if a new value for this field is being written to the target system during this enforcement.

    • Contains: Fire if the field contains any of the values you specify.

    • Equals: Fire if the field equals any of the values you specify.

    Field

    The mapped field that will be evaluated according to the chosen Mode.

    Note

    Only fields that are mapped to the selected Action and whose Use In Notifications toggle is enabled on the target system's Fields tab are available. See Target mappings (PowerShell v2) or Target mappings (Active Directory).

    Invert Condition

    Logically negate the Mode.

    For this example, we'll enter the following values:

    Business_CustomEvents_Configured.jpg

    • Name: Department is updated

    • System: PowerShell

    • Action: Account Update

    • Mode: Is Updated

    • Field: Department

    • Invert Condition: Disabled

Your changes are automatically saved. Typically, the next step is to Add a notification (email) or Add a notification (PowerShell) that uses this custom event.
