Error handing for a step is defined using the Step tab in the Workflow diagram editor. (For more information about the Workflow diagram editor, refer to Workflow Diagram Editor in Working with Workflows.) If the Error handling option selected was `Notify Manager,' an error in the task will cause a new task to be reassigned to the Manager of the step. The reassigned task will be shown in the manager's guide pane.
The Manager can choose whether to ignore the error and sign the task off, or stop the workflow.
