Sync - Monitor

The Sync Monitor shows the current condition of a Sync object and its use by tasks. It offers a complete overview of a selected Sync object.

In the upper part of the monitor, the current condition of the Sync object including its value is displayed. Information is given on the task which last changed the Sync object. These are the name of the task, its RunID as well as the date and time of the change.

A table contains all active and inactive tasks that use the Sync object. The task view corresponds to that in the Activity Window. Additionally, there are active tasks (tasks which are in a waiting position due to their current Sync object value or currently executed) and inactive tasks (tasks that have already been executed). The contents of the Sync Monitor are updated according to the settings in the UserInterfaces automatically or manually.
