Activating a Version of an Execution Setup

Only one version of an Execution Setup can appear in the Reports tab for submission at any one time.

Typically, it is the most recent version. However, you can select a different version if you want to. Whichever version you want to use, you must explicitly activate it or it does not appear in the Reports tab.

  1. In the Applications tab, go to the object instance that contains the Execution Setup you want to activate.
  2. Select Execution Setup from the Actions drop-down list.
  3. Click Go. The system opens the Execution Setup screen.
  4. Click the link to the Execution Setup. The system opens the Execution Setup's Properties screen.
  5. From the Actions drop-down list, select View Version History.
  6. Click Go. The system opens the Execution Setup Version History screen with the status of each version of the Execution Setup displayed in the Status column.
  7. Select the version you want to be available for execution in the Reports tab and click Set As Active. The system changes the status of that version to Runnable Active.

Note:

You must also check in the Execution Setup on its Properties screen or it does not appear in the Reports tab.

Execution Setup Statuses: To see an Execution Setup's status, select View Version History from the Actions drop-down list. Execution Setups can have the following statuses:

  • Not Runnable. An Execution Setup can be Not Runnable for the following reasons:
    • Its containing executable object instance has never been installed. To make the Execution Setup runnable, install the object instance.
    • Since the executable object instance was installed, one or more Parameters have been modified. To make the Execution Setup runnable, select Upgrade Execution Setup from the Actions drop-down list in the Execution Setup screen.
    • Changes have been made to the executable object instance (or its source definition) that are incompatible with the Execution Setup and that the system cannot automatically upgrade; for example, the executable instance now points to a different object definition. In this case, you cannot make the Execution Setup runnable. You must create a new Execution Setup.
  • Installable. The containing executable object instance has been installed, then modified and checked in but not yet reinstalled. To make the Execution Setup runnable, install the instance. The system automatically upgrades the Execution Setup and changes its status to Runnable (unless the system cannot upgrade it, in which case its status changes to Not Runnable).
  • Runnable. The Execution Setup is in synch with its containing executable object instance but has not been set to Active. To make the Execution Setup runnable, set it to Active.
  • Runnable Active. The Execution Setup is in synch with its containing executable object instance and has been set to Active. It appears in the Reports tab. (Only one version of an Execution Setup can be set to Active.)
