Re-evaluate a skin

Skins are sets of predefined rules that initiate different operational behavior of a process. At job creation, TotalAgility evaluates the rules to ensure that the correct skin is applied.

If you modify the data of a process template in TotalAgility, you can re-evaluate the skin without creating a job again to get the updated values.

  1. On the Jobs menu, click Find.
  2. Do one of the following:

    • To re-evaluate skin for a single job, on the Actions column for the job, click Select, and then click Reevaluate skin Re-evaluate Skin.

      Alternatively, you can re-evaluate the skin on the Job Viewer toolbar.

    • To re-evaluate skins for multiple jobs, select the required jobs and on the Actions list , click Reevaluate skin Re-evaluate Skin.

    • To re-evaluate skins for all jobs, select the check box at the table header and on the Actions list, click Reevaluate skin Re-evaluate Skin.

  3. Click Update Variable Values check box to update the variables in the job with the updated values from the skin.
  4. Click the Update Live Activities check box to update the properties of live activities with the updated values from the activities in the skin.
  5. Click OK.

    The skin is updated for the selected job.

    Note The values of the rule variables in the map are preset to match the required skin rule. TotalAgility Workspace creates a job on the relevant skin and overwrites the existing job. However, if any activities were taken and completed, the job continues from the point the activity was completed, and runs within the context of the selected skin.
