Marketing Event Transitions
Program #: 1823
Module: System Administration
Overview
Use Marketing Event Transitions (program #1823) to define valid transitions from one marketing event to another. SBN checks for valid marketing event transitions in the following order:
1. A transition with defined current and new events.
2. A transition with a blank current event and a defined new event.
3. A transition with a defined current event and a blank new event.
4. A transition with blank current and new events.
Note: The default setting for marketing event transitions displays blank current and new events, and a 0 for the action. Use the default to enable a transition from any marketing event to any marketing event without requiring user authorization.
To access this program, select Marketing Event Transitions (program #1823) from the main menu of SBN.
