2. Click the Timeout page in the Properties view.
3. In the Timeout Handler Task list, select the process step you want to designate as the timeout handler. This step will be executed when the timeout period is exceeded. If you do not define a timeout handler step, the process will attempt to invoke the process error handler step instead. If no error handler step is present, the process fails.

Specify the business calendar you want to work with, and the hours, minutes, and seconds of the timeout value.For more information about configuring a business calendar value, see About Business Calendar Timeouts, Business Calendar Prerequisites, and Specifying Business Calendar Timeout Values.
