Suspend execution of a process instance

You can suspend the execution of a process instance. This can be useful, for example, if a server outage would cause the process execution to fail.

Procedure

  1. Open Process administration Process administration in ARIS Connect.
  2. Click the relevant process instance under Processes.
  3. Click Suspend Suspend.

The execution of the process instance is suspended. It has the status Suspended. It can be resumed again later. Unlike the Suspend recurrence Suspend recurrence function, it is not the creation of recurrences that is suspended for the entire process, but only the execution of this process instance.

Example
