• Key Concepts: 
  Condition-related event type is a feature in the Production Planning for Process Industries (PP-PI) component of SAP. It is used to define the conditions that must be met in order for an event to be triggered. This allows for more precise control over the production process, as certain events can be triggered only when certain conditions are met. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use condition-related event type, you must first define the conditions that must be met in order for an event to be triggered. This can be done by setting up a condition table and assigning it to the relevant event type. Once this is done, the system will automatically trigger the event when the conditions are met. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to ensure that all of the conditions are properly defined in order for the system to accurately trigger the event. Additionally, it is important to keep track of all of the conditions and their associated events, as this will help ensure that all of the necessary events are triggered at the right time. 
  
  Related Information: 
  Condition-related event type is closely related to other features in PP-PI such as scheduling and capacity planning. It is also related to other SAP components such as Materials Management (MM) and Sales and Distribution (SD).
