Process Chains (Enhanced)

Various changes have been made for process chains:

• You can stop a process chain run that is running by using a menu entry in the plan view or check view.

  You can use this function to resolve incorrect process configurations, which can result in an unbearably high load volume or long runtimes. Once the run has been stopped, you can improve the configuration of one or more processes and then run the process chain again.

• Using an attribute, you can specify that the previous process chain run will be reset if an error occurs.

  The process chain makes all failed processes (supported by this function) clean their failed instances from the previous run before a new process chain run is started. This function ensures that any further runs of the process chain are not negatively impacted by processes that previously failed.

• In the process chain maintenance screen, you can specify that a particular process will be skipped (not executed) during the process chain run.

  You can use this function if there is not enough time before the next process chain run to resolve an error from the previous run, and this error would cause the next run to fail. Once you have resolved the error, you can include the process in the process chain run again.

• In the process chain maintenance screen, you can specify that a process will be automatically repeated if it is terminated.

  Previously, it was only possible to repeat a process manually in the log view. Therefore, this function makes it easier to handle processes that contain errors in chains.
