Hi All,
In IFS APP 10 and Oracle database, Am I correct to say:
IFS does not continuously check for changes and new notifications. Instead, it works in a reactive way.
This means:
- When something happens (like an approval or status change), the system triggers the notification immediately
- It does not keep checking repeatedly to see if something changed
A simple way to think about it:
- It works like a doorbell — when pressed, it responds instantly
Not like repeatedly opening the door to check if someone is there.
Many thanks in advance
@ROYIBRAHIM ,
Yes, your understanding is mostly correct.
In IFS Apps 10, notifications are generally event-driven (reactive), meaning they are triggered when specific actions occur (e.g., status changes, approvals, etc.), rather than continuously polling for changes.
However, there are a few nuances:
-
Some notifications rely on background jobs or scheduled tasks, so they may not always be strictly “instant”
-
Depending on the setup (Event Actions, Workflows, Background Jobs), there can be slight delays
So in general:
Your doorbell analogy is a good way to explain it 👍
Thanks
