1. Business Request Events – There are four levels of Business Request Events that can raise notifications:

   • Created – Occurs when a Business Request is created. This can be used to, for example, create a policy that sends an email notification to managers of users creating a Business Request.

   • Open – This is used in Approval Flow Policies with more than one Approval Flow Step to notify progressive approvers that the item is ready for them to review once a previous step has been approved by the person delegated for that step. If the previous step is rejected, then this notification would not be sent out.

   • Approver Set – Raised when someone manually assigns an approver to a step.

   • Commented – Raised when a comment is added to a request.

   • Fulfillment Ready and Fulfillment Completed – These are only available at the item level. They are relative to a specific item. These items have been approved, and now they are ready to be fulfilled. This creates a notification at that level. Once fulfilled, notification events are raised. You added someone to a group in response to a request, for example.

   • Completed – Completed can be used at the step level and the Business Request Level to send notifications that a particular step is completed and when the Business Request itself is completed.
