In B2B Gateway, you can create and manage custom event statuses in the Events> Events Status page. You can manage a custom event status to indicate the progress of an event while B2B Gateway processes it.
You can update the custom event status for custom file type events at run time using the B2B transformation that is available in the mappings of Data Integration. Using the B2B transformation, you can either pass the event status as a parameter or select an event status name that is configured in B2B Gateway.
For more information about using the B2B transformation in a Data Integration mapping, see the Data Integration help.
You can create, edit, and delete a custom event status.
