Changing the event filter on the object level

You may also set an individual event filter for a particular object. This way, you determine on what events, which concern this very object and objects possibly contained therein, you want to be notified. To do so, invoke action menu  Change    Event Filter  in the object’s action menu. This pre­sents the ‘Change Event Filter’ form, which is very similar to the one used for the default filter described in the previous section. The setting done here overrides the filter for event notification inherited from the parent folder. If no superior event filter has been changed, the filter inherited is the default event filter.

Use the check boxes below each event service, which you have activated, to select the types of events of which you want to be notified via the service. The ‘configured’ row indicates the kind of event type setting that is currently valid for a service:

      default: the default event filter,

      inherited: a non-default event filter inherited from a superior folder,

      modified: an event filter specifically modified for the current object.

If the event filter for the current object has been changed (indicated by modified for one or more services), you can remove these changes by clicking on [Remove filter]. This leads to using the event filter of a superior folder – or to using the default event filter again if no spe­cific event filter has been configured in any superior folder.

Event services may only be activated or deactivated on a whole when setting the default event filter; click on [Change default filter] to do this.

A configuration of the event filter which deviates from the default event filter is indicated by an event filter changed icon in the entry of the object concerned. Click this icon to view or change the event fil­ter.
