Server Task Statuses View

The Status view of a task shows all the statuses that were associated with the task as it progressed to completion. This allows you to easily identify what the task did, along with any errors, problems, or summaries you would like.

Server Task Statuses Properties

The statuses of a task have the following properties:

NameDescription
Type

The type of status message:

  • Header
    A Status that is the header record for a task. A main section update - normally the start of the task.
  • Progress
    A message associated with progress in the task. Normally associated with different stages the task progresses through.
  • Message
    A message from the task. 
  • Error
    An error encountered during the task processing.
ProgressThe current progress of the task when these message is recorded
MessageThe message from the task for this status
Progress IndexThis is a hidden column by default, but you can select to show it from the grid
All main progress task statuses have a default index of 0. However Tasks can process multiple stages each with their own progress. The individual progress of those sub-stages is held with an incremented index for each stage.
For instance when an Import Definition processes a stage, the progress of that stage being processed is held with a Progress Index of 1. The main progress of each step increments along using the default index of 0.
