Process Log Viewer

Use the Process Log Viewer to view the log files generated by every process.

As you run processes, they generate log files that record the actions taken. You can review the process log records using the Process Log Viewer. It displays the errors or warnings generated for every process in a separate window.

Note: You cannot edit the information in any of the log files, but you can copy text from a log file and paste it in another Windows application.

The process log file is divided into the following sections:

  • Header
  • Process Records
  • Footer
Note: Data is stored as an XML string.

Contents

    • Process Name: This field displays the name of the process run.
    • User: This field displays the name of the user who ran the process.
