Configuring the SubProcess node
The SubProcess node lists all the subprocesses from the server. You must upload your process file (defined as a subprocess) to the server for it to appear in the list of subprocesses.
-
On the General tab, specify this information:
- SubProcess Name
-
From the list, select the subprocess that you want to be called in your process flow.
To open the selected subprocess, right-click the SubProcess node and select Open subprocess. The subprocess will be downloaded from the server and you will be asked to save the subprocess. The subprocess will be opened in the Designer once it is saved.
- Refresh List
-
Click this button to refresh the subprocess list from the server.
- Override OnError in subprocess
-
Select this check box if you want the OnError properties of the SubProcess node to override the OnError properties of all the nodes in that subprocess. If this option is not selected, then the OnError properties of the individual nodes will take effect.
For example, if an FTP node in a subprocess has Continue on Error option, but the SubProcess node which is calling this subprocess has Stop on Error and the Override OnError in subprocess is enabled, then the flow will be stopped immediately when an error occurs. If the SubProcess node has error connection pointing to any of the nodes in the main process and any node in the subprocess fails, then the error connection node will be executed.
-
The OnError tab is enabled only when Override OnError in subprocess is selected (since the SubProcess node does not have its own activity node to run).
If the OnError tab is available, specify this information:
- What should happen on an error?
-
Select from the available options.
- Notify
-
Select the check box if you want to send a notification when an error occurs. If this option is selected, you must fill out the notification details.
- Custom log entry
-
Select the check box if you want a custom log entry in addition to the system-generated log entry.
