Presenting process information in the Manager
The process information form in the process view provides you with an overview of the actions triggered in the system and the resulting processes. This displays information for the overall process and for the individual steps of a process.
To display the recorded process data:

To show all the current user's processes, click 
(User based) in the process data form.
-
To show all of an object's processes, select the object in the result list and click 
(object based) in the process data form.
The following process data appears:

Schedules in One Identity Manager
Frequently, you need to run processes and calculation tasks at specified time intervals. To make this possible, you can define schedules in One Identity Manager. For example, schedules are required for scheduled running of processes within process handling or for different calculation tasks in One Identity Manager. A schedule can be in control of several tasks. Activation times are configured in a schedule for the tasks to be run.
You create and edit schedules in the Designer or in the Manager. The Designer displays all schedules of the system. You can edit individual schedules, such as schedules for attestations, schedules for compliance calculations, or schedules for dynamic role calculations, in the Manager. For more information about editing schedules in the Manager, refer to the administration guides for the modules.
Schedules are already defined in the default installation of One Identity Manager. Configure these according to your custom requirements.
NOTE: If you run a schedule, all tasks to which the schedule is assigned are run. Before you use a schedule on a repeated basis, check the effects of the process handling.
