Monitoring Events
The event monitor is part of the Monitoring section in the navigation bar and gives an overview of all events and their statuses. From the event monitor the status of events can be monitored, see which and how many events are pending to be raised and clear raised events.
The event monitor consists of two panes:
- The event monitor pane displays a list of all events and their status that match a chosen filter.
- The event detail pane displays run-time data of the currently selected event and the ability to delete and clear events.
The possible event states are:
- Pending - The event has been created, by raising the event definition, but has not yet been raised by the event processing engine, either because it has not been processed, or because there is already another event for the event definition that has been raised.
- PendingRaised - The event definition is in the process of being raised by the event engine.
- Raised - The event has been raised, and has marked the corresponding event definition as having been raised. There can be at most one raised event per event definition at any point in time.
- Cleared - The event was raised in the past, but has now been cleared, and is being kept for a historical context, or has been passed to a process that was waiting on the event.
The following filters are built-in:
- All events
- Pending
- Raised
- Cleared
- Pending and Raised
- Raised and Cleared

Field | Description |
---|---|
Event Definition | The event definition that was raised to create this event. |
Raised Sequence | Unique ID for this event generated when it was raised. This is only guaranteed to be unique within each event definition, that is, if two event definitions are raised, they may have the same raised sequence, however, if the same event definition is raised twice, then each raise is guaranteed to generate an unique raised sequence. |
Status | The current status of the event. |
Raiser Comment | A comment made by the raiser when it raised this event. |
Process Raise Events | Events that will be raised when the process reaches a certain state. |
Process Wait Events | Events that need to be raised before the process runs. |
Creation Time | Timestamp that notes when the event definition was created. |
Last Modification Time | Timestamp that notes when the event definition was last modified. |
Raise Time | Timestamp that notes when the event definition was raised. |
Related Objects | Lists related objects such as processes that waited on or raised the event. |
