First, Placement and Create rules are configured so all new work orders that contain the required

DirXML-nwoContent
DirXML-nwoStatus
DirXML-DoItNow Flag
DirXML-SendToPublisher Flag

Write the Work
Order object to
the Publisher.
The Subscriber channel performs the following actions:
1. Creates an association for each WorkOrder object it receives.
2. Checks if the DoItNow and SendToPublisher flags are set to True. If these attributes are set to
True, the Subscriber channel builds a work order and sends it immediately to the Publisher
channel.
3. If the DoItNow and SendToPublisher flags are not set to True, the Subscriber channel waits
until the next event.
