Manually Complete a Request with an Error
Follow these steps to manually complete a Request with an error:
Locate the Complete field.
Click Confirm. The status for the selected Request changes from Error to Complete.
Rollback a Request that Has an Error
A user may rollback to return to a previously completed Task when an error has occurred in that Request. The Process Manager receives both an in-application and email notification that the Request is in-error. Rolling the Request back places its status as in-progress instead of in error so that the Process Manager may properly route that Request.
A Request may be rolled back in the following circumstances:
That user attempting to rollback that Request is a Process Manager.
The Script Task or Data Connector object that has an error is preceded by a Form Task element during that Request's workflow routing.
The Script Task or Data Connector object that has an error has a subsequent Form Task element.
That Request is in an ERROR state.
If a Request with an error does not meet these conditions, the button to rollback that Request is not available.
Follow these steps to rollback a Request that has an error:
Locate the Rollback Request field.
Click Rollback. The Caution screen displays to confirm rollbacking the Request that is in an ERROR state.
Click Confirm. ProcessMaker Platform rolls back to the previously completed Task.

A user may attempt to resume a Request that has a Script Task failed in the following circumstances:
That user attempting to retry that Request must have the Make this user a Super Admin option enabled on that user account.
The Request that has an error is not a child Request to a parent Request.
That Request is in an ERROR state.
The error in the Request is caused by one or more Script Tasks which is in an ACTIVE, ERROR, or FAILING state.
The Request does not have any other Tasks that are in ACTIVE, ERROR, or FAILING states.
If a Request with an error does not meet these conditions, the button to retry that Request is not available.
Retrying the Request only attempts to retry the affected Script Task(s) which are in an ACTIVE, ERROR, or FAILING state. If the error for a Request under these circumstances is resolved when retrying that Request, the Request resumes. Its status becomes in-progress. Workflow routes that were in progress prior to the error resume.
If the error for that Request is not resolved, the Request immediately errors again.
Follow these steps to retry a Request that has an error:
Locate the Retry Request field.
Click Retry. The Caution screen displays to confirm retrying the Request that is in an ERROR state.
