19. A tangible non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a computer-based system for managing a supply chain, cause the computer-based system to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving, by a computer-based system for managing a supply chain, data for an event associated to an item; identifying, by the computer-based system, events associated with the item; retrieving, by the computer-base system, the identified events; and generating, by the computer-based system, an event sequence for the item from the retrieved events.

20. A system comprising:
-
a processor for managing a supply chain, a tangible, non-transitory memory configured to communicate with the processor, the tangible, non-transitory memory having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising; receiving, by a computer-based system for managing a supply chain, data for an event associated to an item; identifying, by the computer-based system, events associated with the item; retrieving, by the computer-base system, the identified events; and generating, by the computer-based system, an event sequence for the item from the retrieved events. wherein the visibility constraint is based on a policy of a publisher of the retrieved event; and pushing, by the processor, the retrieved events to the entity, in response to application of the visibility constraint.
