It is possible to determine the latest end time of a taskAn executable object that is running. Tasks are also referred to as activities.. This type of runtimeThe duration of a task's execution. It refers to the period between a task's start and end. It does not include its activation period (see also: activation and start). monitoring is only possible in a 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."] by setting a particular time frame for its execution.
You can specify the latest end time as follows:
If a latest end time has been specified for a task, the system checks before the tasks starts whether it will probably end by the specified time. This is done by adding the estimated runtime (ERT) to the current time. If the calculated time exceeds the specified time, the task is skipped. In this case, ENDED_TIMEOUT is the end statusThis represents the condition of a task (such as active, blocked, generating). that is reported to the following tasks.
Groups are always started. The tasks' ERTs are checked in a chronological order. The task starts if the calculated end time lies before the specified time. The next task's ERT is checked when this task has ended. If the calculated end time lies after the specified time, the task is skipped. This procedure continues until all the groupAn Automation Engine object type that integrates tasks so that they can be processed together.'s tasks have been checked.
