Workflow Builder

Adding or editing an external process

External processes must be added and configured before they

can be used in a workflow. Initial configuration involves:

• Selecting a process icon

• Assigning a process name

Final configuration involves:

• Setting up input, output, and error hot folders for folder-based

profiles

• Setting up a script location, parameters, a working directory,

and output location for CLI profiles

• Defining the timeout interval for each profile

For folder-based profiles, the third party software must be running

for you to use the external process in a workflow.

To add or edit an external process

1. In Workflow Builder, select [Options: External Processes].

2. In the External Processes dialog, select [New Process...].

This option is available only if four or fewer processes are

configured.

3. In the External Process Setup dialog, select an icon from the

Process icon drop box.

NOTE: External Processes are designated by a plus symbol

overlay.

4. In the Process name text box, enter a name for the process.

NOTE 1: The name must be no longer than 14 characters, and it

must be a unique name.

NOTE 2: If incorrect file characters (for example, \ / : * ? < >) are

entered, an error message displays.
