ignored, and the task just under it (not within a branch) will be given control of the job file
without any modification. Any initial input task that generates an error will stop the process from
running as a whole, and Output tasks will not generate output. The On Error tab can be used to
overwrite the default behaviors.
l
Send to Process: Check this option to send the job file to an error management process.
l
Error Process drop-down: Enabled only when the Send to Process option is checked.
Lists any process of which the initial input task is the Input Error Bin task.
l

l
Default: By default, the task is ignored as if it did not exist and the error is logged
before continuing the branch or process; the job file is passed on to the next task in
the process. When an error occurs in a loop (or in a plugin that acts like a loop), the
loop may log the error, terminate the current iteration and proceed with the next
iteration.
l
Stop Branch: If the task is in a branch of the process, the branch is stopped and the
job file is returned to the process after the branch. The branch will not produce any
output. If the task is not on a branch, the entire process will be stopped.

output is produced.
l
Log Message: Check this option to enable logging a custom error message in the
PlanetPress Workflow log file and in the Windows Application Events.

store the error ID.
