B2B Integration 10.4 | Administering and Monitoring B2B Transactions | Managing File Transfers with ActiveTransfer | Managing Events | Defining an Error Action
 
Defining an Error Action
You can have ActiveTransfer execute an error action if any of the configured actions for a post-processing or scheduled event fail. You can use any of the event actions that ActiveTransfer offers as the defined error action. For example, if a file copy action fails, you can use the Send Email action to notify an administrator of the failure.
The error action is subject to the following conditions:
*You can create only one error action per event.
*You must configure an event action to execute the error action by selecting the Execute error action check box for the action.
*You must configure the error action just as you would configure any other post-processing or scheduled event action.
* To define an error action

2. Select the server instance. For details, see Selecting the Instance to Work With.
