  • Publication number: 20090319285
    Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for managing disruptive business events. A selection is received from a user to associate one or more items in a content repository with one or more disruptive business events. Once items are associated with events, the business processes around those items change based upon predefined event settings defined on the business events. As users interact with the one or more items associated with the disruptive business event during a normal course of business, one or more actions associated with the event settings are applied. Items associated with disruptive business events can be assigned at different levels in a hierarchy in the content repository. Other applications can retrieve data regarding the disruptive business events.
