Fixing step errors

The Validate Results dialog box displays the set of errors present in the current workflow. You can use the Move To Previous Error and Move To Next Error buttons to navigate through the errors. If the Select associated step in Task Assistant check box is checked, the step associated with the selected error will be highlighted in the Task Assistant window.

NoteNote:

During the validation process, the execution state of the Task Assistant workflow is automatically disabled (that is, clicking directly on a step in the Task Assistant window or highlighting it through navigation will not cause the step to execute). The execution state can be reestablished by clicking the Reset Workflow button.

After all errors have been fixed, you can revalidate the workflow by clicking the Validate Workflow button on the dialog box or the Validate Workflow button on the toolbar.

NoteNote:

Designers have the additional flexibility of using the Designer tab to update step properties to fix workflow errors.
