Specifying the schedule action
On the Action tab, specify this information about the workflow that should be started by this schedule:
- Workflow to Start
- Select the name of the workflow that should be started by this schedule. In the drop-down, all workflows are displayed, except for workflows that contain structures. At the time the workflow schedule is activated, you must activate the workflow separately.
- Trigger Workflow Instance
- You can select one of these options about how to trigger a workflow
instance:
- Run in parallel
If this option is selected, the schedule triggers a new workflow instance every time it runs. This is the default option.
- Skip running workflow
If this option is selected, the schedule determines whether there is already a workflow instance started from a previous run that has not yet completed. If another workflow instance is still running, the schedule does not start a new workflow instance.
- Cancel running workflow
If this option is selected, the schedule determines whether there is already a workflow instance started from a previous run that has not yet completed. If another workflow instance is still running, the schedule cancels the old workflow instance and starts a new one.
- Run in parallel
- Parameter Mapping
- After a workflow is selected, the workflow parameters table is
filled with the list of workflow input parameters. You must specify values
for the workflow input parameters to be used by the workflow schedule when
starting a new workflow instance:
- If the workflow input parameters already have initial values, you can use these. You can also specify other values.
- If the workflow input parameters do not have initial values, you must specify constant values.
