Rerun a Task
A videographer has a Job Summary export that she wants to run again to see updates. She can perform this action on the My Files page.
When a task created, certain parameters are set to generate data. Rerunning the task in My Files generates updated data for those same parameters. For example, rerunning the Job Summary export generates the same report, but if the status of one of the jobs in the report changed from "In Progress" to "Processed", that change will appear after the rerun is complete. This same principle is true for any of the tasks that appear in My Files. This way, the videographer doesn't have to create a new task every time she wants to see updated data.
The videographer navigates to the My Files page on TrialDirector360.com and follows these steps to rerun the task:
- Select the task.
- Click Rerun in the top right corner of the page.
The videographer selects the task she wants to rerun.
Note: If she can't find the task on the first page, the videographer may need to use the search features of the table to find the task she is looking for. View the Search, Filter, and Manipulate Tables article for more information.
The videographer clicks the Rerun button.
A confirmation dialog appears, prompting her to review the details of the task that will be executed. When she is ready, the videographer clicks Rerun.
The task executes and the entry for the task in the table is updated.
Note: Tasks with a status of In Progress cannot be rerun.
