Note
Subprocesses do not have the General tab which is only used for scheduling, but they do
have the Information tab.
Options
General tab
l
Active: Select to make the process active. Clear to prevent this process from running
when you send the configuration to PReS Workflow.
l
Startup: Select to make this process a startup process (see: "Startup processes" on
page125). This option is not available for self-replicating processes and error processes.
The order in which the Startup processes are arranged in the Configuration Components
pane determines, from top to bottom, the order in which the Startup processes are
executed when the Workflow Service launches. To change the order you may drag and
drop them (see "Moving and copying configuration components" on page823).
l
Self Replicating: Check this if you want the process to replicate itself in the background
when multiple input files are received simultaneously. When this is checked, the input
task polls its source once, determines the number of files to process, then replicates itself
up to the maximum allowed and treats the files simultaneously. The initial process runs
again once it has completed itself and replicates again as necessary, until all files have
been processed.
l
Max percentage of threading (%): Determines how many processes you may have
running at the same time. This is a percentage of the maximum number of threads
specified in the "Messenger plugin preferences" on page777. For example if the
maximum number of threads is 10 and you specify 50% here, a maximum of 5 replications
will occur (the original process + 4 copies).
l
As soon as possible: Select to have the process run continuously. Clear to enable the
Time Grid to fine-tune the schedule of the process.
