1. From PlanetPress Workflow Configuration software, press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+F4
simultaneously. The PlanetPress Workflow working folders are opened.
2. Double-click on the folder called Log.

l ppwYYYYMMDD.log - PlanetPress Workflow logs, including the year, month and
day of the log (from midnight to midnight).

Note
The PlanetPress Image and PlanetPress Fax logs are available in different folders. From
the Watch folder, go up one level then go in either folders, under which you will find the
Log folder for that specific software within the suite.
Resubmit Backed Up Input Files to a Process
Each input task includes an option that lets you back up input files. This options is not selected
by default, since it has the potential to generate a very large number of back up files. To turn on
the backup option of an input task, simply open its properties, go to the Other tab and check the
Backup input files option, then type in a unique file name for the backup file (this should be
variable).
But if, for a given input task, you did select this option and something goes wrong and an
original input file is lost or corrupted, you will have the option to use the Resubmit Job
command to pull the backed up input file into the process.
Granted that you have back up copies of the files polled by an input task, you may resubmit
them as required. The PlanetPress Workflow Configuration gives you the option to resubmit
them as they were submitted originally (polled by the initial input task) or to submit them to
those tasks located on the index you select.
