Event Trigger

You may need to trigger workload manually for the following reasons:

• To run a non-scheduled Event
• To alter the next scheduled time of a scheduled Event
• To add a new scheduled Event execution
• To trigger the Event, but hold the Application it submits
• To pass user parameters to the Application
• To run a subset of jobs in the Application

By default, when you trigger an Event manually, the Application triggered by the Event runs with the security permissions of the execution user specified in the Event definition. If you want the Application to run with the security permissions of the user triggering the Event, you can use the inherit trigger user (ITU) option in the Event definition.

When the Event triggers, the execution user requires the appropriate permissions to read the Application triggered by the Event. When each job runs in the Application, the execution user requires the appropriate permissions to run the job on the agent and to read any global variables specified in the job.
