According to the ArchiMate 3.2 Specification1, a business event is a behavior element that denotes an organizational state change. It may originate from and be resolved inside or outside the organization. A business event accesses a passive structure element that represents an entity relevant from a business perspective, such as a business object, a contract, or a product. A business passive structure element is denoted by a rectangular shape with square corners. The access relationship is denoted by a line with an open arrowhead.
The diagram below shows a business event named Order Received that accesses a business passive structure element named Order. The access relationship indicates that the event reads or writes the order.
