Business Continuity Management: How to create DRP exercise only for specific loss scenario?

Hi all,

I'm implementing (Business Continuity Management) module and have successfully created:

  1. Business Impact Analysis (BIA) record(s)
  2. Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) record(s)
    • While creating DRP I have created number of records for 'Loss Scenarios' and their respective 'Recovery Tasks'

Question:

Now that I want to create 'Exercise' or 'Real Events' in workspace I am trying to trigger an exercise/event for an approved DRP, but I want that DRP to tiger only selected 'Loss Scenarios'. 

Until now whenever I create exercise/event for given DRP it creates recovery tasks for all possible Loss Scenarios that have been defined in DRP and I was wondering if there is a way to trigger only specific Loss Scenarios

and their respective recovery tasks only?

 

I appreciate your comments 🙂
Thank you.

For others that view this question in the future, you can achieve this by creating a new m2m table between an Event (sn_recovery_event) and the Loss Scenario table. 

 

You can then build a flow that relates all the unique loss scenarios for the related plans to the event. On the Events to Loss Scenario m2m table you can create a new field called Applicable to determine which Loss scenarios are applicable and then configure one more flow to go and deactivate all the related event tasks for that specific scenario.
