Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks because they are
related more to the system than to PlanetPress itself. Some examples would be W3813, W3830, W3991, W4005. These cor-
respond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission errors on folders or files, etc.
Set Job Infos and Variables
Add Set Job Infos and Variable action tasks to set job info elements as well as custom variables. You can set multiple variables
and job info values in a single task. Be aware that lines are processed from top to bottom.
Input
Any data file in any format.
Processing
This task assigns the defined values to each local or global variables or job informations. It does not modify the data file nor
the metadata.
Output
The original data file, metadata and job infos are not modified, they are passed on to the next task.
Set Job Infos and Variables action task properties are as follows:
General tab
l Var/Info#: Lists all job infos, local variables in the current process and global variables in the configuration. Click on
the variable you want to change.
l Value: Enter the value that you want to associate with the selected job information element or custom variable.
l
button:Adds a new line and lets you define the variable and value to set.
l
button:Removes the line that is currently selected (highlighted).
l
button: Moves the line up so it is processed before.
l
button: Moves the line down so it is processed after.
On Error Tab
The On Error Tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found on Task Properties Dialog.
If storing the message or ID, if they are store in a jobinfo they will be available in any error handling process where errors are
being forwarded. In all cases, if your process continues after the error, the contents of the variables selected in this window
will be available for the rest of your process, or whenever they are overwritten.
Common Errors
Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks because they are
related more to the system than to PlanetPress itself. Some examples would be W3813, W3830, W3991, W4005. These cor-
respond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission errors on folders or files, etc.
SOAP Client Plug-in
SOAP Client tasks can be used as input, output and action tasks, although their basic function is to generate output. SOAP (Sim-
ple Object Access Protocol) is a light protocol that defines a standard XML format used to communicate among systems across
different architectures, languages, and operating systems.
A SOAP request is an XML-based Remote Procedure Call (RPC) sent using the HTTP transport protocol. The payload of the
SOAP packet is an XML document that specifies the call being made and the parameters being passed.
