Differences Between the End Step and the Stop Step

The stop step sets the state for the Workflow Process to In Error. The end step sets the state to Completed. It is important to consider this situation if you use the Workflow Monitor Agent to start a Workflow Process.

If the Ignore Errors parameter of the Workflow Monitor Agent is set to False, and if a Workflow Process includes:

  • A Stop step, then Workflow Monitor Agent exits with an error.

  • An End step, then Workflow Monitor Agent does not exit with an error.
