  Key Concepts:
  Exception activity is a feature of SAP AIE Auto-ID Enterprise (AIE) that allows users to define and manage exceptions in their supply chain processes. Exception activities are triggered when certain conditions are met, such as when a shipment is delayed or when an item is out of stock. When an exception activity is triggered, the user can take corrective action to resolve the issue.
  
  How to use it:
  To use exception activities in SAP AIE, users must first define the conditions that will trigger the activity. This can be done by setting up rules in the system. Once the rules are set up, users can then define the actions that should be taken when an exception occurs. These actions can include sending notifications, creating tasks, or taking other corrective measures.
