Process properties

Description

Process name

Enter the name of the process under which it is stored in JobRouter.

Label

Describe the process corresponding to its function (e.g. Invoice receipt). The label is displayed to the user.

Version

The version is automatically assigned. You can not manually enter it. Versioning is fully explained in the JobRouter Administration Manual.

Table name

Enter a name for the process table assigned to the process. The table is created automatically. Make sure the table does not already exist.

Please note: The table name cannot begin with a digit.

Subject

Subject that is displayed in the step overview or in the input box. The subject can be filled with values from the process table.

Custom Instance fields (1,2)

The user-defined instance fields can be defined by the administrator and are available across processes. The fields can be filled with values from the process table.

Active

Activate the process here. If there is an active process in another version, it will be deactivated.

 

If the number of active processes in the license is limited and there are already as many active processes in the system, no more processes can be activated. In this case, the checkbox is disabled and a message indicates the reason when the menu is opened.

Maintenance Mode

If you activate this option, only process designers can open and start the steps. All other users will get a hint about the maintenance mode.

Write Protected

The process becomes read-only and can no longer be opened and edited with Designer.

Category

You can assign the process to a category, which affects the order of the processes listed in the overview. For further information see the JobRouter Administration Manual.
