Creating the notification business item

In this lesson, you will create a new business item called Notification.

The Cancel Order and Send Notification task does not use Order as an output business item. To send notification to customers that their orders were canceled, you need to create a new business item.

To create the Notification business item, complete the following steps:

  1. Switch to the Business Modeling perspective.
  2. From the Project Tree, right-click Business items and click New > Business Item.
  3. Name the new business item Notification and click Finish. The Notification business item appears.
  4. Under Business item attributes, click Add, replace the new attribute name with e-mail, and select Text for the type. Repeat this step to add the second attribute named text with the same type.
