Invoke a Workflow

You can invoke, that is manually execute, a Workflow regardless of whether it is enabled or disabled. However, you cannot invoke a Workflow that is Locked.

Notes

  • If you invoke a Workflow, the Workflow runs immediately, regardless of:
  • The schedule designated by the active schedule frequency tab
  • Whether the Workflow schedule is enabled
  • aP Connect runs the Workflow automatically only if the Workflow is enabled.
  • More than one run of a Workflow can occur at any given time. For example, if a Workflow is scheduled to run at the start of every hour, but it takes 1.5 hours to complete a run, a second run will start while a first run is 30 minutes from completion.
  • To maintain performance and protect Workflows from failing due to upstream edits aP Connect automatically locks Workflows while they are executing.

Invoke a Workflow:

  1. Open the Workflows page. In the aP Connect header bar, click Workflows.
  2. Open the Schedule tab. Click Schedule.
  3. Scroll or sort to and then select the row that contains the Workflow that you want to invoke.

    The selected row becomes blue.
