Adding Breakpoints to a Process

While debugging your process in the Process Editor, you can set breakpoints to determine why certain steps are failing.

To add a breakpoint to a process:

1. In the Navigation pane, click Processes.

   The Processes window opens.

2. In the Processes Summary pane, double-click on an existing process or right-click on a process and select Edit.

   The Process Editor opens.

3. Click the Step tab.

4. In the Steps grid, right-click on a step and select Set Breakpoint.

   A red column appears next to the step to show a breakpoint has been added. Breakpoints remain in the process until you delete them.

   As you run your process, the execution pauses at the step in which you set the breakpoint.

   To view all breakpoints, open the Breakpoints tab.

To enable and disable a breakpoint:

If you want to disable a breakpoint and not delete it, right-click on the step in the Step grid and select Disable Breakpoint.

The Breakpoint column appears with a faded red color to show that the breakpoint has been disabled.

To enable the breakpoint, right-click on the step and select Enable Breakpoint.

The Breakpoint column returns to its red color.

You can also enable and disable a breakpoint in the Breakpoints tab using the right-click menu options.

To clear a breakpoint:

To remove a breakpoint, right-click on the step and select Clear Breakpoint.

You can also remove a breakpoint in the Breakpoints tab. Right-click on the breakpoint and select Remove Breakpoint.

To remove all breakpoints, right-click in the Breakpoints tab and select Clear All Breakpoints.
