Process - Running in background/Disable executing mask.

karelh

Hi guys,

I hope someone can help me. I have a process that generates word documents for members of an employer. This process takes a while especially if there are more than 20 or so members. The documents are then all merged and converted into a single pdf that is imported back into the DB and sent to the customer.

I am trying desperately to run the process in the background but the executing mask stays there preventing the user from continuing. I have select bot the option "Run process in background after x seconds' and I have also disabled the "executing mask" where I start the process.(from a query)

Am I doing something wrong or missing something? The process does not require any user input.

Please help.

Regards,
Karel

Hi Karel,

Looks like you are doing everything correctly. Would you be able to share a test bsv, so that we can take a look? If so, please send the bsv to japsin@softserv.in

Thank you I will send it to you. After some testing I have figured out it only does it when there is a process input specified. If there is no process input then it moves to the background as expected....
