Monitoring amount of jobs processed in a specific flow or flowelement

Post by mireille »

Hello,


Does anybody know a simple solution to monitor the amount of jobs processed in one or more workflows? And specify or sort them by a flow element?

With statistics I only get information about the time and not the amount of jobs.
But maybe I'm using it the wrong way.

Thanks in advance!


Greetings from Holland!!

Statistics is indeed for doing a timing analysis, not for counting files.

Writing a script that you put in the beginning of your flows and that keeps a counter in a file is not that difficult. I remember that you followed a scripting training once :D

Any other method:

- reading the CSV log that you can set in the Switch Preferences
- reading the XML output of the messages also in the Preferences
- writing to a CSV log file with the Switch Logger app: https://appstore.enfocus.com/product/Switch_Logger

will involve something extra to give you a count. The easiest method I can think of is to open the CSV in Excel and to apply "Data - Filter". This will give you a filter for every column and when you select the values of the columns you want, you will see the number of matching records at the bottom.

Hi Freddy,

Thank you for the quick reaction!
I'm going to try your different options and build them in our flows.
