# After Data Collection Point Posting

Starts a workflow after data collection points are posted.

## Event Context

The event provides `DataCollectionInstance`, `Points`, `DeletedPoints`, `Result`, `Material`, `Resource` to tasks in its branch. Select these values in the value editor when configuring child tasks.

??? example "After Data Collection Point Posting"

    Inspect `Points`, `DeletedPoints`, and `Result`, then react to posted readings. `Material` and `Resource` come from the data collection instance; validation flags remain with the native operation.

## Behavior

`Material` and `Resource` are obtained from `DataCollectionInstance`. Validation options are handled by the posting operation.

The handler runs inside the operation's transaction. An error in the handler can cancel or roll back the operation. An After event runs after the operation boundary, while the transaction is still active.
