Summary
During the execution of a (successor) task, it may become necessary that a task will need to be performed again (ex.: add data previously missed or an error is discovered).
The user has to trigger the entire Orchestrator process list again to (re)start predecessor task again.
This limitation pushes to restart/resubmit tasks through the control center, which is time-consuming and may bring undesired effect since tasks are not meant to be restarted through the Control Center (RunMyJobs).
Enhancement Request
When monitoring the task list progress in the workbench it needs to be possible to select a task that has a status “Error” or “Completed” and select an option “Resubmit”. This shall open a dialogue box that requires to provide a comment with the explanation why restart is required.
If the end user decides to request the restart of the task, a workflow to the task list owner and users who have at least the priviledge “Edit Processes” on the task list will be triggered asking for approval and decision.
Depending on the status of the task the following scenarios shall happen:
-
if task is in error and the close list owner approves the restart, a substitute task will be created that is linked to the initial task. When the substitution task is completed also the succeeding tasks will be triggered and the overall close list can go to “completed” if all tasks including the substitution task go to completed.
-
if task has been already completed, the task list owner can decide in the workflow if only that one task shall be restarted or if also succeeding tasks shall be restarted. how the initial issue was remediated and that the task shall be considered as completed and successing tasks can be progressed. The status of the overall close list shall be considering the new manual execution confirmation and go back to a running state and later be completed if all other tasks have been completed as well.
