6. Select the process flow status whether Executed, Aborted, Successful, Running or Waiting from the Status dropdown list.

7. To search log based on process flow PID, enter the PID in the Process Flow PID filed.

   PID is 30-digit number, which is generated when you execute a process flow.

8. To view the logs for the time interval defined above, click Details button. The log information for the selected time interval is displayed with the following information (see Figure 11):

   • Parent/Child (whether the Process Flow is a Parent, Child, both or none)

   This screen is divided into two parts:

    
   • • Process Flow Status that displays the details of the selected process flow and its activities.
     • Parent/Child Process Flow Log Details that displays the list of Parent or Child Process flow of the selected process flow. Following details are shown in Process Flow Details screen:
       • Process Flow Name
       • Process Flow Id
       • Process Flow PID
       • Status
       • Start Time
       • End Time
       • Process Flow Execution Time
       • Activity Name (ID)
       • Activity Type
       • Start Time
       • End Time
       • Execution Time
       • Status

11. To open any file from the list, click on the name of the file.
12. In case you want that all the respective intermediate repository files of the process flow when opened should support a particular character set encoding, then you can define the required character set encoding code in the new textbox Character Set Encoding. All the repository files will then support the defined character set encoding (see Figure 13).
13. In case you have selected log level of the process flow other than Error, then you can view its detailed log by clicking on Diagnostic icon in Figure 12. Defending on the level of log, detailed log of this process flow is displayed (see Figure 14).

    If you have selected Error in the log level of the process flow, then clicking on diagnostic link does not display any information.

14. Clicking Error link in Figure 14 displays the details of all errors due to which the process flow is aborted. Error link is only displayed in the View Process Flow Log screen, in case, the Process Flow is aborted. If Process Flow executes successfully, Error link is not displayed.
15. Click Close Window button to close this screen.
