Configuring error handling

This task describes how to configure an error handler for activity nodes that have the On Error tab.

  1. Click the On Error tab.
  2. On the "What should happen on an error" portion of the tab, configure the action. If you select:
    Stop

    The process will stop immediately if an error occurs.

    If you want someone to be notified that the process has stopped, configure the Notify portion of the tab.

    All errors are captured in the log automatically. If you want to configure custom text for the error, configure "Custom log entry."

    Continue process

    In this case, the process will attempt to continue processing. You must configure notification and/or custom logging in this case.

    Go to error handler

    If you select this option, you must use the error connector to set up where the process branches to and whether it continues running when an error occurs in the activity node.

    Click the error handler connector and connect it to the next node in the process.

    You must configure notification and / or custom logging in this case.
