The "On Error"tab that is common to almost all tasks contain the following options:
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 Action Group:This group is disabled in the initial input tasks and defaults to Stop Process. In all
other tasks where the On Error tab is present, the following options are available:
l Ignore:The task is ignored as if it did not exist, and the job file is passed on to the next task in
the process.
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.
l Stop Process:The process is stopped and no more processing is done. No further output is
produced.
l Log Message:Check this option to enable logging a custom error message in PlanetPress Workflow'
log file.
l Message:Enabled only when the Log Message option is checked. Enter a message that will be
logged in the PlanetPress Workflow' log file. You can use any variables available in PlanetPress
Workflow to customize the message.
l ID:Select the error IDyou want to attribute to the error log.
l Reset to defaults:Resets all options in this tab to their default values.
The error management system(the On errortab and the Error Bin Inputtask), however, are only triggered
when there is an error within the task functionality - that is, a plugin error. These kinds of errors are triggers if
the plugin cannot communicate with a service, another task, if the plugin crashes, etc.
