Flow of Events Top of page

Basic Flow

  1. The flow is initiated when an editor posts content to the system or when new content is received from the existing WebNewsOnLine system.
  2. System checks categories for the new content.
  3. System checks subscriber profiles to determine whether any subscribers wish to be paged for this category of content
  4. System generates a text message based on the headline
  5. System constructs a series of email messages
  6. System sends email messages to subscribers (who will receive these as an alphanumeric page)

Alternate Flows

If no headline exists, a system default message is inserted into the email message.   The default message is maintained on the system by WebNewsOnLine staff, and there is only one message on the system at any time.
