4.82 - Watchers, Feeders, & Triggers

-Watchers, feeders, and triggers exist in the Adilas system currently but we hope to add lots of future development in these areas. These watchers, feeders and triggers are associated with how things in the system interact and effect each other. This also deals with being able to get more and more aggregate, summarized, and bigger picture data instead of the transactional or individual level.

-An example of a watcher could be something that is keeping an eye on inventory levels and alerts you when you get to a certain level. A feeder could be pulling information from many different sources to create a report of information you need. A trigger could be anything that causes something else to happen.

-All of these things interact and are working together throughout the system naturally and normally as the system operates. We can create backend code that is watching and feeding in data for totals, reports, analytics, and so on; which could then be triggered at certain points to create summations or pull in other parameters to give comprehensive feedback. These pieces are at work constantly in the system and will continue to be used to produce greater tools.

-As mentioned before we have plans to add more of these watchers, feeders, and triggers to provide access to more aggregate data and improve data analytics and tools for marketing.
