Evaluating a process for instantiation

Previous  Top  Next

Exclusive use for users that have access to the SE Workflow, SE Incident and/or SE Problem components.

 

Process evaluation allows finding inconsistencies in the modeling or process configuration that will be instantiated in the SE Workflow, SE Incident or the SE Problem component. This evaluation is available in both the flowchart and the process menu.

 

If during process modeling you wish to evaluate the process modeling, click on the "Evaluate process" button located on the toolbar of the process modeler. If the process to be evaluated is not being modeled, locate the desired process through the "File arrowrgray Process" menu and, with the process selected, click on the compile_b button located on the toolbar. When clicking on the process evaluation button, a screen will open, listing, if any, any errors that prevent process start in the SE Workflow, SE Incident, or SE Problem:

 

If the automation configuration is not enabled, when clicking on the "Evaluate process" button of the flowchart, the system will alert you that the process is not selected for automation, asking if you wish to configure it now. If the answer is yes, the system will open the configuration showing the Automation option.

See the following table for any possible errors that prevent the process from running in the SE Workflow, SE Incident, or SE Problem component:

Problem

How to correct it

Process is not enabled to be instantiated.

For the process to be executed in the SE Workflow, SE Incident or SE Problem components, the Enable process to be instantiated option must be checked in the process data.

Process is empty.

Process does NOT have activities. At least one activity must be connected to an end point so that the process can be closed. Add process activities, as well as its flows and actions.

Process does not have any interrelated activity relationships.

For a process to be executed in the SE Workflow, SE Incident or SE Problem components, all its items must be linked. Add flows to all items that make up the process (activities, sub-processes, connectors and end points, among others.).

There is no end point in the process.

The only way to finish a process is through an end point. Add at least one end point and connect it to an activity that enables the executor to finish the process.

Process contains items without flow.

For a process to be executed in the SE Workflow, SE Incident or SE Problem components, all its items must be linked. Add flows to each item mentioned in this topic.

Item does not contain output flow.

All items of a process, except the end point, must have at least one output flow, so that its successors activities can be defined. Add at least one output flow to each item mentioned in this topic.

Activity does not contain an executor action.

An activity must have at least one action that executes it and sends the process to the next activity. Add at least one action that executes an activity to each item mentioned in this topic.

Variable route action does not contain any conditional expression

Variable route actions must have at least one conditional expression saved. Create the conditional expressions for each action mentioned in this topic.

There are no items created in the conditional expression.

A conditional expression must have at least one created item. Create the items for each conditional expression mentioned in this topic.

Conditional expression is incorrectly set up.

Check the parenthesis grouping and the logical operators for each conditional expression mentioned in this topic.

There are errors in process sub-processes.

Correct the errors located in each sub-process mentioned in this topic. Evaluate each sub-process to find out the error.

Process contains a third-party activity.

You cannot start a process in SE Workflow that contains flows for activities from other processes. Delete the flows related to third-party activities.

Process already exists.

Process ID already exists. Change process ID #.

Configuration is incompatible with message event.

The template used in message events must be of the external file type with the .HTM or .HTML extension. Make the required adjustments in each message event.

Process with multiple starts of the same type

In order for this process to be instantiated, there must be at most one start of each type.

Process does not contain a simple start event

In order for this process to be instantiated, there must be a simple initial event. (The default start event that is added to the flowchart when modeling the process for the first time)

Survey template problems

The system will indicate which specific problem occurred in the template.

 

Make all the necessary corrections, and then rerun the evaluation to verify if the process no longer has any errors.
