General Settings
Parameter |
Description |
|---|---|
Process |
A list of all active processes Please note: If you import processes with a subprocess system activity or synchronize them via JobSync, make sure that the target process has already been created and activated in the system before you open the configuration. |
Fix Subtable |
If a fixed subtable is linked, as many processes are started by the selected process as there are rows in the subtable. |
Input Parameters
The input parameters include standard parameters and dynamic parameters depending on the selected process.
Fix Input Parameters
Input Parameter |
Required? |
Type |
Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Step |
Yes |
Integer |
Step number to be started. Please note: You can start all step types. The subprocesses are not restricted to start steps! |
Simulation |
No |
varchar (Checkbox) |
An indicator as to whether the process should be started in simulation mode. Possible values: 0, 1, true, false |
Username |
No |
varchar |
The started step is assigned to this user. This value overwrites the user in the configuration of the step in the target process. |
Jobfunction |
No |
varchar |
The started step is assigned to this jobfunction. This value overwrites the jobfunction in the configuration of the step in the target process. |
Initiator |
No |
varchar |
Initiator of the instance. |
Escalation Date |
No |
varchar |
Processing deadline for the process. |
Dynamic Input Parameters
Dynamic input parameters depend on the target process.
The structure according to the individual fields therefore differs from target process to target process.
A distinction is made between input fields and mandatory fields in the configuration for process and sub-table fields.
In principle, the following applies: fields are only made available for configuration if they are at least marked as input fields.
Rules of the configuration:
Target Table fields |
Description |
|---|---|
Process table fields |
These fields are listed in a separate section below the individual fields in the “Required process table fields” section. The data type corresponds to the type of the process table field. A subtable field can also be specified here as the source if a fixed subtable has been defined under General Settings. |
Process table fields |
These fields are listed in a separate section below the required process table fields in the “Optional process table fields” section. The data type corresponds to the type of the process table field. A subtable field can also be specified here as the source if a fixed subtable has been defined under General Settings. |
Subtable fields |
For each sub-table of the target process, a separate section is listed below the optional process table fields with the name of the subtable. The data type corresponds to the type of the subtable field. A subtable field can also be specified here as the source if a fixed subtable has been defined under General Settings. Mandatory fields of the subtable must be selected and configured so that the process can be started successfully. |
Output Parameters
Output Parameter |
Type |
Description |
|---|---|---|
Return Code |
integer |
Return Code after starting the instance •1: Success •< 0 Error |
Error message |
varchar |
Error message for the return code |
Created Instance |
varchar |
Instance number of the created instance |
Workflow |
varchar |
Workflow-ID of the created instance |
Step |
varchar |
Schritt-ID of the created instance |
Process |
varchar |
Prozess-ID of the created instance |
Behavior when errors occur
Fehlercode |
Description |
|---|---|
-1 |
The process could not be created because the contents of the process or subtable fields could not be processed for the target process. The details can be found in the error message. |
