# EVENTGENERATOR activity

In Business Integration Solutions, use the **EVENTGENERATOR** activity to generate a job queue event for a message.

## Usage

Use this activity to invoke an operation that runs in a separate transaction in an asynchronous manner. For example, after importing a sales document (inbound connection), you can use the **Event Generator** activity to release or post the document automatically.

## Concept

Actions such as releasing a document or calling a posting routine also trigger various other processes. Including such actions in the same transaction, such as during data import, can significantly hinder system performance. Use the **Event Generator** activity in these cases.

For smaller tasks such as reopening a document or updating fields, you can use custom connectors instead. These tasks can be part of the same transaction.

For an inbound connection, the **Event Generator** activity typically follows the **Record Generator** activity.
