Miscellaneous Tab
The Miscellaneous tab is common to all tasks.
Check the option Use as step description to display the text next to the icon of the plugin in
the Process area.
Process logic tasks
A process is like a flowchart. The data files captured by the Input tasks become job files (see
"Job file" on page50) that travel down the process. Many processes include multiple process
logic tasks.
In the Process area, conditional branches appear with their associated condition, allowing you
to understand the logic of the whole process at a glance. When PlanetPress Workflow comes to
a condition, it tests the condition and sends the job file down one of the two branches based on
the test result. So every time a job file travels down the process, it is either routed down the
True or False branch.
A "Branch" on page469 is effectively a doubling of your job file (see "Job file" on page50).
As your job file goes down the process, when a branch is encountered, a copy of the job file will
go in that branch. In the branch, all tasks up to the Output task will be performed, before
returning to the main trunk to continue processes. You can have branches within branches, and
all branches must have an Output task. For more information on branches, see "About
branches and conditions" on page136.
A "Loop" on page476 is a task that will cause anything after it to repeat a certain number of
times. You can indicate a static number of loops or dynamically determine the number via a
