Process Modeling

We have a sent functionality having "Appian Group" in the To field. Group have users and it is working fine in our DEV and SIT environment.But the problem is, not working and getting this error in UAT and PROD environment alone. I gone through some existing threads and they suggested to use toemailrecipient() function. We didn't use, but it is working good in DEV and SIT. So, please suggest what could be teh problem with higher environments. Problem:  An error occurred in executing an Activity Class. Details:  No valid recipients resolved Recommended Action:  Examine the activity class to correct the error and then resume. Priority of this problem: High Priority

Hi, I am trying to use Start Process Smart Service to initiate processes conditionally. It is a MNI. Sometimes the process runs without any issue, however, sometimes the child process that was started gets stuck at start node without any errors in the instance. Does anyone have an idea regarding this? Any help is appreciated.Refer the flow below :-1st PM - the smart service runs as an MNI, triggers multiple instances  3rd PM - Review Process:It gets stuck at start node or script task node and does not move forward. Thanks

Hi All , How can we manage memory consumption in process model , so that it wont be more than  10,00,00 AMU .   ( the ways we can follow to reduce memory consumption in Process Model ) .

Hi All, When starting the process model again and agian facing below issue can you. Please help to find the best possible solutions? Error when parsing process details or variables Regards Nishtha Bhatnagar

I have a requirement where the processes are scheduled within a range of 12 hours, let's say 3 PM to 3 AM, with a time gap of 1 hour. So my batch process should start at 3 PM but after first instance it should be triggered after every 1 hour till 3 AM. Is there any way we can achieve this using Timer event? Also, I am recording the scheduled date and time in the database. Is it possible to directly get that time and start the process with it? Any ideas how we can achieve this?

Hi everyone, I am trying to fetch archived process instance details based on process model and date. I have tried below approach: - 1.Using find archive smart service which is part of Process Management Utilities plug-in, but the smart service isn't returning any output regardless of the details I have provided. 2.Through log file but the file which is generated in system logs are dynamic (based on timestamp) due to which I am not able to use this approach. Please help me to find a way through which I can fetch archived process instance details.

What is the maximum size limit of process variable in Appian?

I want to delay the Timer Event for Exactly for 1 second and followed the appian recommneded process  accordingly still there has been no effect  The Duration of that node is always less than 1 second some times  like 0.58,0.060.8,0.36 these were the values seen.I want to see Exactly 1 second. Is there a way to configure to delay the node for exactly one second Thanks In Advance

Please help me. Zar file inside log4j.properties are missing as per command.  i m very new in Appian.if you have any link from where i can learn testing . Please share. Thank you very much in Advance.Fitnesse tools i downloaded from below link https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/fitnesse-for-appian.  where log4j files are missing as per error.

We have a handful of process instances not archiving: 1. Process model's data management is set to archiving 3 days after completion or cancellation, and there are no previous versions of the process model object 2. Instance shows up in monitoring with a green checkmark and all nodes in Process Node under Process Details are completed 3. Nothing shows up under Current Tasks, Quick Tasks, or Sub-Process 4. It looks like the process was manually restarted (start node in the middle of process history) - this restart did successfully run until End Node. End Node also finished at the same time as another node.  Was just curious if this was expected behavior or something that needs more investigation.

Currently, after submitting a form, a new form appears with the previous values for some of the fields , how to fix this issue

Hi, I have a process model with an Export DSE to Excel smart service and it exports to an Excel file stored in a  folder dedicated for this functionality in my application. During QA testing, 2 different basic users who are in the same parent group and the group has Viewer access for the folder security. One user can successfully download the exported Excel file, while the other user's process instance gets the folder security error "The specified Save in Folder doesnt exist or you do not have enough privileges to access it ". I resolved it by setting the Export DSE to Excel smart service's assignment to "whoever designed the process model" but still would like to understand why 2 basic users will see different behaviour in the process when that node is set to "whoever started the process" as the assignment. TIA

Hi Everyone , I am getting an error in write to record node in the process model. we had relationship between two records, the table name of the parent  record was modified and it was throwing an error in Process model. telling: table does not exist  "The table name(old table name) " ,later the parent record was removed from application ,and the relationship is also removed. Even now I am getting the same error. when I am not even referring that record ,I am getting an error saying the older table name does not exist ,the table name is modified and record is removed ,why am I facing the error still? Pls let me know the solution

Hi there! I'm facing this timeout issue - "The amount of time allocated for the completion of an unattended activity was insufficient to allow the activity to complete" in process model SFTP Smart Service. This issue occurs in the last instance of 20+ iterated instances and it resolves as soon as I retrigger the node. That last instance has only 4.87 KB JPG file to transfer. Anyone faced such kind of issue and how did you resolved?

It is a FormLayout with submit button, that works as a standalone: validation before the startprocess is fired. However, if I make it an interface called from a record view, it stops working: the process starts without the validation being done (basic "required" info).Here is the simplified code for the form: a!formLayout( contents: { a!columnsLayout( columns: { a!columnLayout( contents: { a!textField( label: "Numéro article", labelPosition: "ADJACENT", value: ri!record['recordType!{b3cc31cc-1595-401f-b13c-16b953dd1f5b}ED Projet.fields.{b0296e3d-29b7-42e8-acd8-a99e9fd26649}budgetPrevisionnel'], saveInto: ri!record['recordType!{b3cc31cc-1595-401f-b13c-16b953dd1f5b}ED Projet.fields.{b0296e3d-29b7-42e8-acd8-a99e9fd26649}budgetPrevisionnel'], required: true ), },

Hello,  When a process is started from a timer and no user is assigned to it, what user will have started that process?For example, when viewing process instances, who will be the user in the Started By column? Thank you,  Nick

Dear experts, I have a PM with user input task, in task form, I define one submit button, which submit is true, validation is true, in this task form, it have a child interface, which have a paragraph field which required is true. However when I keep this paragraph field as empty and press the submit button, user input task completed, PM completed, no validation here. What maybe the possible reason here?

I am working on build an application: step 9 of the Acme Auto App. Currently working on the Process Model.  When I save and publish I get 2 errors: The first one says that "there was an error in an expression in at:" but gives me no further information. When I click on it it takes me to properties but I don't know where to look. I checked the troubleshooting suggested on the lesson but did not find anything. What can I do to fix it? The second it says the process model contains a variable that it does not reference. I'm assuming this is because I will reference this variable later but I am no 100% sure. Is that correct? Thanks in advance, Gabriel

Hi team, I have a use case where I need to delete old data. Imagine I have three tables: employee, address, and documents. To delete an employee, I need to store documents and address in history tables then i need to break the dependency (foreign key mappings) from documents and address . Then, I need to move the employee details to a history table before deleting the employees. So, I have a process model which executes these steps in individual query database nodes, like moving details to the history table using inserts, then breaking dependency using update, then moving employee details to history using inserts, and finally deleting employees using delete. These tables are just examples; I'm doing a similar process which I cannot fully explain here. The thing is, my production table has 110GB of data, so performing this operation for 3k employees took more than 3.5 hours. So, I planned to process in parallel using startprocess MNI. It is wo

Hello Everyone, I have an "multipleMeetings" array process variable which of MAP type, its holding the meeting related data as shown in below image, I am running a subprocess(to store it in a database) for each meeting present in multipleMeeting PV by enabling MNI. In the subprocess by inserting the meeting data in database, storing meeting data in meetingDataPV which is single type of meetingInfo CDT, so every time the sub process completes it execution it returns the meetingDataPV to parent process now in parent process i want to append it to another variable which is also a meetingInfo CDT type, but the problem is its appending the last executed instance's meeting data only. Can anyone help me in this?
