Properties for Subprocesses

You can use properties to further define the resource you are configuring.

These properties are scoped differently. If the property does not explicitly have a value, the value will be the default value for the type. See Scope Definitions.

Properties

The following table describes the available options.

Property	Read	Write	Description
Auto Select	All	None	Flags a task to be executed prior to non-flagged task steps in a subprocess during run time.
Absolute Expiry Time	All	All	In a preprocess or a presubprocess, you can set an absolute expiry time (DateTime value) if the Expiry Type is set to Absolute.
Relative Expiry Time	All	All	In a preprocess or a presubprocess, you can set a relative expiry time (TimeSpan value) if the Expiry Type is set to Relative.
Expiry Type	All	All	Allows you to set the subprocess's expiration to Absolute, Relative, or None during run time.
Assigned Location	All	All	This value indicates the assigned location of a computer and/or a piece of equipment.
Assigned Personnel	All	All	This value indicates the personnel assigned to a task step.
Completed	All	None	Read Only Allows you to determine if a specific executed subprocess or task step has completed or been cancelled. This value is set to False for all subprocesses at the beginning of the process loop. It is set to True after the subprocess activity execution finishes if the task step was completed (not cancelled). It is reset to False if a jump operation to or before the subprocess is performed. If an unhandled fault occurs during subprocess execution, this flag is set to False.
Completion Code	All	None	Read Only
Current Computer	All	None	Read Only
Current User	All	None	Read Only
Enabled	All	External	True if enabled, False if not.
Executed	All	None	Read Only Allows you to determine if a specific subprocess or task step has been executed by the workflow engine. The value for this property is set to False for all subprocesses by the Process Workflow activity before it executes the preprocess. The value is set to True after each subprocess finishes execution, but before the postsubprocess executes. The value is not set to True if the subprocess is skipped.
Global Subprocess	All	None	Read Only
Id	All	None	Read Only Unique key in the scope of a workflow/schedule definition that identifies a step within the workflow/schedule.
Is Global Subprocess	All	None	Read Only
Is Acquired	All	All	True if subprocess task step has been acquired by another user, False if it has not. Validation: can only be set to False at runtime when task step is already acquired.
Manual Start	All	None	True if the task step needs to be manually started, False if it does not.
My Task List Documents State	All	All	Type: MyTaskListExpanderLayout Possible values: UserConfiguration, Auto, Expanded, Collapsed
My Task List Documents View	All	All	Type: DocumentsView Possible values: Input, WorkInstructions, LinkedDocuments
My Task List Documents Visibility	All	All	True if the Task List's documents are visible, False if they are not.
My Task List Expander Position	All	All	Type: ExpanderPosition Possible values: Horizontal and Vertical
My Task List Input State	All	All	Type: MyTaskListExpanderLayout Possible values: UserConfiguration, Auto, Expanded, Collapsed
Task Step Instance Name	All	All	The string name of the task step instance.
My Task List Input Visibility	All	All	N/A
Name	All	None	Read Only Display name of the step within the workflow/schedule.
Subprocess Group	All	None	Process Scope
Task Step Instance Id	All	None	Read Only Process Scope Unique key that identifies a task step (instance). Task step instance identifiers are assigned each time a subprocess execution begins; that is, just before the presubprocess executes. This property states undefined if you attempt to access the task step instance ID for a task step when it has not started.
Task Step Instance Name	All	None	Read Only Process Scope String name of the task step instance.
Task Step Instance Expired	All	None	Read Only Process Scope Time that the task instance can no longer be performed.
Visible	All	None	True if the task step is visible, False if it is not.
