+Identify all objects eligible for this event and create L<FS::cust_event>
+records for each of them, as of the present time, with status "initial". When
+combined with conditions that prevent an event from running more than once
+(at all or within some period), this will exclude any objects that met the
+conditions before the event was created.
+
+If an L<FS::part_event> object needs to be initialized, it should be created
+in a disabled state to avoid running the event prematurely for any existing
+objects. C<initialize> will enable it once all the cust_event records
+have been created.
+
+This may take some time, so it should be run from the job queue.
