Global Logging Capture
Component definition
This component enables global logging or reporting for workflow execution. As part of that process, it generates process ID entries. (These are found in the ReportProcess table).Unlike other components, it does not need to have any connections coming into or going out of it.
This component appears on your workflow when the Add Process Component check box is clicked in the Project Global Properties Reporting tab.
The global logging component will create an entry in the report process table with a prefix based on the “Process Prefix” setting of the project, (found in the reporting tab of project settings. Normally the default is “WF-”.) each time the project is executed.

Use cases
This component is required when you require the ability to report the execution of your project. This occurs by generating an entry in the report process table. New entries are added each time a project containing this component is executed.
Also, there are several other components that require this component to be present in the project so that other process components will function (such as Set Process State/Status). However, the component itself does not have to be enabled for the other components to function properly.
This component should not be considered a replacement for normal and proper error handling. The default error handling models that are created with new projects should only be modified to meet the specific error reporting requirements of the project. They should not be removed or replaced.
