Business process events

Common Base Events are emitted for BPEL processes if monitoring is requested for the BPEL process elements in IBM Integration Designer. A process can cause process events, activity events, activity scope events, link events, and variable events to be emitted.

All BPEL process events can be emitted in both the CEI and the audit trail, with the exception of the process template events. The process template events PROCESS_INSTALLED and PROCESS_UNINSTALLED can only be emitted in the audit trail.

A human task activity has an associated inline human task. When you define your BPEL process, you can specify that both the activity and its associated inline human task emit events.

The event structure is described in the XML Schema Definition (XSD) file BFMEvents.xsd. The file can be found in the INSTALL_ROOT\ProcessChoreographer\client directory.
