Question:
What does the entry "SystemActivityLoopTreshold" in "DocuWare.Bpw.Service.exe.config" stand for?
(Note that the entry is not "Threshold" misspelled. That is how it has been defined).
Answer:
One of the new functions in DocuWare 6.11 is the identification of loops in workflows.
The key "SystemActivityLoopTreshold" defines how often a background activity or an automatic activity (e.g. assign data, Web Service) is running - without reaching a task or a parallel task - before the instance is being terminated.
If there was a termination, it is assumed that there is a loop within the workflow between background activities or automatic activities.
In such a case the workflow will be unpublished and the workflow controller will receive a notification via e-mail.
Please keep in mind that you need to provide an e-mail address for the workflow controller(s).
The default value for "SystemActivityLoopTreshold" is "10".
