# Code event

A **Code** event triggers a pipeline for a specific record. A **NETCode** event or **User** event achieves the same but are marked obsolete.

The **Code** event triggers a connection pipeline for a specific record. Use this event to start a connection from a certain Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central object. This event triggers in the current transaction (synchronous).

> [!NOTE]
> **Note**
> 
> A **User** event is a specific implementation of the **NETCode** event but uses the same code. The only difference is the setup options. Both are replaced by the **Code** event.

Examples of a **Code** event:

- Triggering a connection while releasing or posting a sales document.
- Triggering a connection when a report runs.
- Triggering a connection manually via an action on Anywhere Mobility Solutions page.
