Confirmation of running a TI process

Post by mayorob03 »

I am interested in displaying a "Are you sure....?" prompt when a datadmin initially runs a process? Is this possible? Thanks!

Hi,

Another option is to add a parameter to the process which will prompt with "Are you sure (Y/N)" and then add some code to the top of the Prolog tab of the process that checks the answer, f.i.:

IF(Upper(pPrompt) @<> 'Y');
ProcessQuit;
ENDIF;

(where pPrompt is the created parameter).
Note that the process will not prompt when run through a chore.
