Scheduling Log

The scheduling log displays the results of the scheduling process run from the Activities page. It includes start and finish times for the process, a list of settings selected for the process, project statistics, process results, and any warnings that were encountered during the process that require attention. The Scheduling Log also displays any errors that cause the scheduler to fail. The scheduler might fail if a loop is detected in the activity relationships. A loop, or circular relationship, is caused by an activity relationship that leads back to an earlier activity in the activity sequence. If the scheduler fails due to a loop, then the scheduling log lists all activities involved in the loop, starting at the beginning of the relationship logic. To resolve the loop, return to the Activities page and view the relationship trace logic for the activities in the loop and remove a relationship.

The scheduling log can be set to display upon completion when run from the Schedule dialog box on the Activities page. Select View Log in the dialog box to display the log from the most recently run process. You can also access scheduling logs from the notifications panel or from the Manage Services page.
