Task Control properties
The following task properties are available for all Scheduler task types. To edit these properties, select the task in the Scheduler job, then expand the Task Control section.
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
|
Skip this Task |
If selected, the task will not be run when the job is processed. By default, this option is not selected, which means this task will be run. |
|
Process task only if the value of this expression is true |
Optional. Enter a logical expression to conditionally process this task depending on whether the expression resolves to true or false at the time the job is executed. If true, the task is processed as normal. If false, the task is skipped. The logical expression is evaluated by the Scheduler server using an IF function. The expression can be any statement that would be valid within an IF function. You can use Excel functions, Axiom functions, and Scheduler job variables in the expression. If you use a job variable in the expression, you must place the variable in double quotation marks unless you expect it to be resolved and evaluated as a number. For more information, see Conditionally processing tasks in a job. |
|
If this Task fails, continue executing subsequent Tasks |
If selected, the job will continue processing even if this task fails. By default, this option is not selected. If a task in a job fails, the job is canceled and no further tasks are processed. |
|
Create a Subordinate Job for this Task |
If selected, this task will be processed as a subordinate job to the current job. Selecting this check box enables concurrent processing of different tasks, if the option to Wait for all Subordinate Jobs to complete before proceeding to the next Task is not selected. NOTE: This option is not available for Process Plan File tasks. |
|
Wait for all Subordinate Jobs to complete before proceeding to the next Task |
If selected, the job will wait for any subordinate jobs to complete before moving to the next task. If this check box is not selected, and the option Create a Subordinate Job for this Task is selected, then tasks can be processed concurrently instead of sequentially. This check box is selected by default for Plan File Refresh and File Processing tasks. For other task types, this option is not selected by default. |
|
Override Log Level for this Task |
By default, Scheduler jobs perform logging at the same level that is specified for the application. If necessary, you can override the logging level for a particular task, so that it always runs at a specified logging level. You may want to do this if you encounter performance issues for tasks that generate a lot of logged messages. To do this, select the check box for Override Log Level for this Task, then select the desired logging level from the drop-down list. NOTE: This option is only available for File Processing tasks. |
NOTE: Older systems may see a setting named Workbook processing engine to use. If this option is present, it should always be set to Axiom Web Engine. Use of Excel for processing on the Scheduler server is no longer supported. All Scheduler tasks that involve spreadsheet processing are processed using the same spreadsheet emulation engine as the Windows Client.
Iteration
This section can be used to optionally enable iterative processing for the task. For more information, see Using iterative task processing.
