Changing the System Status

System Status Stop

The automatic processing of a client can be stopped. The status of the active tasks such as workflows, Schedules and events changes and finally, these tasks show the status "STOP - Automatic processing has been stopped.

While a client is being stopped, you can still activate tasks. Tasks such as Schedules, workflows, events, groups or recurring tasks also obtain the status STOP. Individual tasks without superordinate tasks are processed.

You can use the Go command in the Activity Window's context menu in order to release tasks. In this case, they are processed although the system is stopped.
