Event Properties

As well as the standard properties that can be set on all events, the following properties can be set on this type of event:

 

Property

Description

Relative to PropertyDef

Specifies the property with a date or date/time value to which the event should be relative.

Time Offset

The amount of time before or after the date found in the property when the event should trigger. Use a positive value to trigger after and a negative value to trigger before.

 

For example, to trigger one day before a user is set to expire, you would create a relative time workflow event with the property set to ExprodoUser.Expiry Date, and set the time offset to minus one day.

 

If you trigger this event from a property that stores a date property (that is, one without a time component), then you will also be asked for a time of day. This will be the time when the event will trigger on the calculated day.

Properties Available for Child Actions To Use

The following properties are available for use in any child or descendant action:

 

Property

Description

biskit

The biskit that triggered the event. For example, if you configure an event to trigger the day before a user expires, the biskit will be set to the user.

Business Days

The Relative Time Event has a concept of Business Days. These are weekdays Monday-Friday, not including Holidays. There is a Biskit Def called Holiday Date which is used to store all the days defined as being Holidays.
