Starting Tasks

With the iView "ActivateObject", users can start executable objects in AE. For that purpose, the name of the object and the description of the task need to be specified in the personalization settings. It is also important to indicate the system alias which must comply with the term the administrator defined in the system settings.

Different AE systems can be accessed via system aliases.

The object can now be activated with the Start button. The iView shows the run number (RunID) of the current or last execution. Follow the link "Detail" and the Detail Window provides further information upon start time and return code, similar to the UserInterface.

The iView generates an input mask if user input is required for the execution of an object (e.g. if the script element :READ is used). Red stars "*" symbolize mandatory fields.
