Event Types define Submission-level events (Comments, Letters, Public Notices, Inspections, etc.) conducted on a Site.

Managing Event Types

nVIRO contains 22 Event Types that can be configured and maintained within the Lookup tool (Lookup Maintenance) , driving different system behavior depending on the needs of each program. All Event Types may not be currently applicable or available based on the functional modules that the program is utilizing. Navigate to Admin → Lookups → Event Types to view or make adjustments to any Event Type.
