Events exist in Finance and Operations, but their consumption was previously confined within Finance and Operations. This new capability provides a framework that will allow business processes in Finance and Operations to capture business events as business processes are executed, and send the events to an external system or application.

This will allow, for example, a purchase order approval to trigger a fulfillment in the vendor organization sooner than later; a receipt of a damaged part to trigger the vendor claim process in real time; and so on. Since these events happen in the context of business processes, they are called business events that enable business process integration.

External business processes will subscribe to specific business events from Finance and Operations to get notified when they occur. The business events can also be consumed as "triggers" in the Finance and Operations connector.

More details on this capability can be found in the feature documentation on Business events.
