To Define an Event Subscription

	<webagent>/wf_event_html.listsubscriptions

Attention: This URL accesses a secured page, so if you have not yet logged on as valid user in the current web session, you will be prompted to do so before the page appears. You must have workflow administrator privileges to access the Event Manager web pages.

Note: You can also access the Event Subscriptions web page from the Oracle Workflow home page. See: Accessing the Oracle Workflow Home Page, Oracle Workflow Administrator's Guide.

Note: For seeded subscriptions with a customization level of Limit, you can only update the subscription status. For seeded subscriptions with a customization level of Core, you cannot update any properties; you can only view the subscription definition.

Note: All event messages received by an inbound agent on the subscribing system are considered to have an External source, whether the sending agent is located on a remote system or on the local system.

Note: In most cases, the Source Agent field is left blank.

Note: Each subscription must have a unique combination of subscribing system, source type, triggering event, source agent, phase, owner name, and owner tag. If you are defining several subscriptions with similar properties, assign each subscription a different phase number to differentiate it from the others.

Note: If you enter a rule function other than the default, Oracle Workflow does not automatically send the event message to the specified workflow and agent. You must explicitly include the send processing in your custom rule function instead. You can still enter workflow and agent information in the Action region for your function to reference, however.

Note: The list of values for the Workflow Process Name field includes only the runnable processes within the item type you specify.

Note: The Out Agent must be located on the subscribing system. The list of values for the Out Agent field includes only agents with a direction of Out.

The list of values for the To Agent field includes only agents with a direction of In.

	<name1>=<value1> <name2>=<value2> ... <nameN>=<valueN>

Note: If you send the event message to a workflow process and you want to specify additional parameters to set as item attributes for the process, you can enter these parameters in the Parameters field for a subscription and use WF_RULE.SetParametersIntoParameterList() in the subscription rule function to set the subscription parameters into the event message parameter list. The event parameters will then be set as item attributes for the workflow process when the process receives the event. See: SetParametersIntoParameterList, Oracle Workflow API Reference.
