Status check types

When you define a status check, you select from a list of predefined status check types and then specify criteria depending on the check type. The elements that you see on the page will vary depending on which criteria are required for the status check type that you select. For example, if you select Formula, then the Formula field is displayed.

Several check types use grids to define the criteria. In those cases you can define multiple criteria, any one of which will stop an application from advancing. None of the criteria in these grids are required, so you can define different types of status checks by entering different values.

For example, for an Inspection Result status check you can specify an inspection type and an inspection result code, either separately or together. How the status check is applied depends on which values you enter.

  • If you don't specify any criteria, the status check looks for any inspection without a result.
  • If you specify just an inspection type, the status check looks for inspections of that type with no results.
  • If you specify just a result code, the status check looks for inspections of any type that have that result.
  • If you specify both an inspection type and a result, the status check looks for inspections of that type with that result.

This table describes each type of status check:
