Workflow Error Handling

Automated Workflow's tri-level error handling system allows you to set error handling properties for the whole system, for individual Workflows, and for individual steps within Workflows. The Workflow-level error handling properties determine how Automated Workflow will respond when a particular Workflow fails. Workflow level error handling is set within the Workflow properties dialog box.

To set Workflow error handling properties

Use Increment filename to create a new log for each new Workflow error by adding a numerical stamp to the file name. Numbering begins at 0001.

Use Add date time to filename to create a new log for each date that an error occurs by adding the date to the file name. The default format is mm-dd-yyyy. You can change the format or add time by typing in an alternate format. If only date is used, multiple errors on the same date will be appended to the same log file. If date and time are used, a new log file will be created for each Workflow error occurrence

If neither Increment filename nor Add date time to filename is selected, a single error log is created and new error data is appended to the log on each error occurrence.
