The Attributes tab is a type-specific tab which is found only in the Group objectAutomation Engine controlled activities and processes are structured in the form of objects. See also: Task. It is used to define the handling of tasks and defining the start specifications of the groupAn Automation Engine object type that integrates tasks so that they can be processed together..
Object: Group
Object class: Executable object
Object type
(short name): JOBG

Attributes | |
Max. parallel-running tasks |
Specify the maximum number of executable objects which are allowed to run simultaneously in a group. 1 to 999 tasks are allowed. |
Queue | Selection of a Queue object in which the group should be processed. The group automatically starts in the Client Queue (object name: CLIENT_QUEUE) if nothing has been specified in this field. |
Children queueA particular Automation Engine (AE) object type. In AE, a queue determines the maximum number of concurrent tasks, their priorities and the order in which tasks should be executed. In ARA, queues are containers for workflow executions that should be executed at a certain time one after another. | Queue object which is used for the group's tasks. The queue of the subordinate tasks is replaced by the value specified here if the group is being processed. The settings made in the individual tasks are used if no value has been specified for "Children queue". |

Time zone that should be used |
Select this check box if it should not be generated at the time of activation but instead at runtime. |
|
Deactivate autom. when finished |
The workflowAn object of the Automation Engine that can include several executable objects and which runs them in a specified order. [Formerly called "ProcessFlow" and "JobPlan."]'s settings for automatic deactivation apply for group objects that are processed as part of this workflow. These settings overrule the settings of subordinate tasks. If the Activity Window includes many tasks that are not automatically or manually deactivated when they are finished, this can negatively affect performance and the Activity refresh cycle. |
Never |
The group is not automatically deactivated and remains visible in the Activity Window after it has been executed. |
After error-free execution |
The group is automatically deactivated after its successful execution. Interrupted groups remain visible in the Activity Window and must be deactivated manually. You can additionally specify a particular statusThis represents the condition of a task (such as active, blocked, generating). for the error-free execution and a time delay for de-activation. Do so by using the fields Error-free status and/or Time delay ... Minutes. If this value is set also via the UC_CLIENT_SETTINGS, the setting in this field will be considered according to the following rules:
|
After an error-free restartA restart refers to the repetition of an object's execution. This action differs from a new start in some parts. |
The group is automatically deactivated after a successful restart. Previously interrupted groups are also deactivated. You can additionally specify a particular status for the error-free execution and a time delay for de-activation. Do so by using the fields Error-free status and/or Time delay ... Minutes. If this value is set also via the UC_CLIENT_SETTINGS, the setting in this field will be considered according to the following rules:
|
Error-free status |
Status that confirms a successful group execution. If no status is selected, the system-return codes 1900 - 1999 (ANY_OK) represent error-free execution. |
Always |
The group is always automatically deactivated after it has been executed. Additionally, you can specify a time delay for a deactivation in the "Time delay" field. If this value is set also via the UC_CLIENT_SETTINGS, the setting in this field will be considered according to the following rules:
|
Time delay ... Minutes |
The group is automatically deactivated after a specified number of minutes. You can manually deactivate it before this time is over. The time difference only affects groups whose execution also resulted in an automatic deactivation. |
The specified settings in this tab can be read and modified at runtime. Attributes of this object will thereby be accessed with scriptA particular Automation Engine object type. statements and functions.
