Executing Processes Using Manual Mode

You can choose to execute your process without intervention or you can execute your process in a step-by-step method. Running your process in Manual mode allows you to debug process execution when automation is not working. Manual mode requires user intervention when executing your process.

If you are stepping through your process execution, you can:

Visually see the log as it progresses through execution
Review the steps in the process
View variable values during execution
View recordset values during execution

To execute a process in manual mode:

In the Navigation pane, click Processes.

The Processes window appears.

In the Processes Summary pane, select a process that contains a Manual Step action and complete one of the following tasks:
Select a process and click the Run button
Right-click a process and select Run.

The Configuration dialog opens.

In the Run Settings section, click the Run Mode drop-down list and select Manual.
Configure the other settings to run your process. For more information, see Configuring Process Execution.
Click Start.

The Execution dialog opens with the Step tab in view.

Expand the Step view by clicking the Expand/Collapse button on the right of the dialog to view the steps while using the other tabs.
Click the Manual Execution tab to view the details of each step's execution.
In the Execution dialog menu, click Step to begin process execution.
Continue to click Step for each process step.

After your Manual Step action step has run, view the Prompt and Expected Value information in the Manual Execution tab.
(Optional) Enter the actual value in the Actual Value text field and a message in the Error Message text field.
(Optional) Change the test status that is documented in the manual step by selecting a Test Status option.
Continue to click Step for each process step.

After all of the process steps are executed, the Result Viewer opens with the results.
