l User mismatch: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow display a prompt when a different user opens the application.
l Task deletion: Select to prompt for confirmation when deleting a task.
l Document deletion: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation when deleting a document.
l Group of documents deletion: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation when deleting a
group of documents from the Configuration Components Pane.
l Empty group deletion: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation to delete a group when you
remove the last of its member objects. If you clear this option, groups are automatically deleted when their last
members are removed.
l Invalid name: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow warn you when you try to rename an object in the Configuration
Components incorrectly. Names can include letters, numbers, and underscores; the first character of a name cannot be
a number.
l Printer queues document group update: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt you when adding a doc-
ument to a group under the Documents category in the Configuration Components Pane. You are only prompted if the
group of documents is assigned to one or more printer queues. PlanetPress Workflow can add the new document to all
assigned groups under the Printer Queues category automatically.
l Configuration send with wrong user: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation when you
are sending a configuration while logged onto the computer as a user other than the one associated with the Plan-
etPress Watch service.
l Configuration save: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt you to save the current configuration when exit-
ing the software or before opening another configuration file.
l Configuration send: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt you to send the current configuration to run in the
PlanetPress Watch service when exiting software or before opening another configuration file.
l Nothing to configure: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow notify you when you try to set properties for a task that
does not have any properties. For example, the Error Bin input has no properties because it only inputs jobs sent to it
through On Error properties of tasks in other processes. When you attempt to edit its properties, it displays the "nothing
to configure" message when this option is selected.
l No registry: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow notify you if it cannot find an install location in the registry. In such
cases, the path of the currently running software executable is used as the install path.
l PlanetPress Watch 3 documents and job commands transfer: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow display
a prompt when you import a configuration from PlanetPress Watch 3 that allows you to transfer documents and job
commands.
l Plugin not found: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow display a prompt when you import a configuration, and one
or more of the plugins used in the configuration are not found on the computer running the software.
l Prompt on configuration overwrite: Select to have your PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation when a
configuration is about to overwrite a file with the same name.
l Prompt on no active process to send: Select to have your PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation when
attempting to send a configuration although no processes are active.
l Prompt on overwrite of a document: Select to have your PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation when a
document that is being imported using File | Import Document is about to overwrite an existing document.
l Prompt on Document overwrite when service is running: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt for
confirmation when a document that is being imported using File | Import Document is about to overwrite an exist-
ing document. The only difference between this option and the previous option is that this option will warn the user that
the document about to be overwritten may currently be used by the PlanetPress Watch service.
l Prompt on Importing a non PlanetPress Document: Select to have PlanetPress Workflow prompt for con-
firmation when a document that is not a valid PlanetPress document is about to be imported. This may occur if a non-
PlanetPress document will inadvertently have a PPX or PSI file extension.
l Prompt on Resetting Document Attributes: Select to have your PlanetPress Workflow prompt for confirmation
when importing a hidden or read-only document using the File | Import document command. By confirming the
import, you allow PlanetPress Workflowto reset the document’s attributes to ’Visible’ and ’Read and Write’.
