Define an Event on a Shared Field

You can define an event in CA APM on any field that is shared between CA APM and CA CMDB. When the criteria for the event occurs by a change in CA Service Desk Manager/CA CMDB or CA APM, the event will complete and the notification will be sent. For example, you can define an event on the Asset page for the Contact field. If the event is a change event, the event can be completed when you change the Contact field in either the asset or the related configuration item (CI). Once the event has completed, a notification will be sent.

Note: For more information about managing events and notifications, see the User Guide.
