Format of system event file

The system event file contains the actual instance information about the actual course of the processes. An extract from the XML file for the above example could look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<!DOCTYPE eventlist SYSTEM "event.dtd">

<eventlist>

...

<event>

<attribute type="PPM_EVENT_ID">A-Nr 4711</attribute>

<attribute type="PPM_EVENT_NAME">AUFTRAG_ANGELEGT</attribute>

<attribute type="AUFTRAGNR">4711</attribute>

<attribute type="AUFTRAGART">Rush order</attribute>

<attribute type="START_TIME">11.11.2002 11:11:11</attribute>

<attribute type="PPM_ORG_NAME">Mr Miller</attribute>

<attribute type="PPM_ORG_NUM">1</attribute>

</event>

...

<event>

<attribute type="PPM_EVENT_ID">A-Nr 4711</attribute>

<attribute type="PPM_EVENT_NAME">RECHNUNG_ERSTELLT</attribute>

<attribute type="AUFTRAGNR">4711</attribute>

<attribute type="AUFTRAGART">Rush order</attribute>

<attribute type="START_TIME">12.11.2002 14:21:15</attribute>

<attribute type="PPM_ORG_NAME">Ms. Smith</attribute>

<attribute type="PPM_ORG_NUM">1</attribute>

</event>

...

</eventlist>

The format of the XML output file is specified by the DTD for PPM system event format:

tr_xml_dtd_evt

The id and name XML attributes of the event XML element and the org XML element enable you to continue using system event files generated for PPM versions 1.x and 2.x with no changes.
From PPM version 3.0 they are replaced by the PPM_EVENT_ID and PPM_EVENT_NAME system event attributes and by the orgunit XML element.
