Working with completed task assistant workflow steps

Task Assistant Manager has several tools for managing task assistant workflow steps including the ability to show or hide check boxes that can be used to indicate whether the step is complete.

The check boxes that display can also be configured to automatically appear as checked when the step is highlighted in the Task Assistant window by choosing Auto Check on Select in the Task Assistant window shortcut menu. If you do not choose this option, you will have to manually check the check box next to each completed step.

Steps:
  1. Start ArcMap.
  2. If necessary, click the Task Assistant Window button Task Assistant window on the Task Manager toolbar to display the Task Assistant window.
  3. Load a task assistant workflow.
  4. To display check boxes, right-click in the Task Assistant window and click Show Checkboxes.

    Each step appears with a check box next to the step.

  5. To display a check box as automatically checked when the step is highlighted, right-click the step and click Auto Check on Select.
  6. To clear a check box, perform one of the following:
    • Uncheck a specific check box in the Task Assistant window.
    • Click the Reset Workflow button Reset Workflow on the Task Manager toolbar. This will uncheck all check boxes.
    • Right-click in the Task Assistant window and choose Clear Checkboxes. This will uncheck all check boxes.
  7. To hide check boxes, right-click in the Task Assistant window and click Hide Checkboxes.

    This will uncheck and hide all check boxes.

    NoteNote:

    Saving the status of step completion and the progress of workflow execution with check boxes is not possible. Saving and reloading the history log is currently the only way to track workflow execution.

    See Saving the history log and Loading the history log for more information on saving and loading the history log.
