Introduction for Trigger Setup
Triggers allow users to create messages to automatically update employees, management, and customers.  The trigger can be set to run on a specific event or at a predefined time.  The message can be sent to multiple email addresses selected by the user.  This is an effective way of communicating demand to suppliers, production delays to management, order shipments to customers, and much more.   
 
There are several system triggers established in different areas, as well as the opportunity for users to establish their own trigger definitions. 

The following triggers are established in Manex:
