You can set filter criteria in the RemoteTaskManager object in order to specify the external workflows that should be shown in AE. They are displayed in the Activity Window as the RemoteTaskManager's children. Non-AE operations can also be monitored via the UserInterface. The RemoteTaskManager provides even more functions: Non-AE operations can be started, intercepted and canceled. The Child Post-Process tab can be used to write a script which is processed when the non-AE operation has ended. The statistics include details about each job execution, and if required the job report can be transferred to your AE system.

You determine the area in which a RemoteTaskManager object can be used when you create it.
