Suspend/resume recurrence for executable process

You can suspend the recurrence of an executable process and resume it later. Processes for which a recurrence has been configured in ARIS Architect are identified in process administration by the symbol Recurrence configured.

Procedure. Procedure

  1. Click Application launcher Application launcher > Administration Administration.

  2. Click Process administration Process administration.

  3. In the navigation, click the relevant process version under Processes.

  4. Click Suspend recurrence Suspend recurrence.

    The recurrence is suspended.

Unlike the Suspend Suspend function, the creation of recurrences is suspended for the entire process, not just for the execution of a given process instance.

Example 231.

The Save data process is started at midnight each night. The process comprises the two steps Copy data and Archive data.

  • Suspend recurrence

    If Suspend recurrence Suspend recurrence is selected, the process will no longer be started as of the next night and will not not resume until Resume recurrence Resume recurrence is selected. However, all running process instances are completed.

  • Suspend process instances

    If Suspend Suspend is selected at night for a running process instance that has just finished copying data, this specific process instance is suspended, in other words, the data will no longer be archived. Process execution stops at this point. The next night, however, a new instance of the process is started, and the data is backed up and archived. The suspended process instance will not continue to run until Resume Resume is selected.
