- The Cycle Instruction allows to repeat all jobs or a number of jobs and additional instructions in a workflow.
- The Cycle Instruction can be used
- to spawn the complete workflow,
- to spawn a number of jobs in a workflow,
- in a sequential way by using a number of Cycle Instructions within the same workflow,
- in a nested way by embedding Cycle Instructions within the same workflow.
- The Cycle Instruction offers some versatile options when to repeat execution and how often this should happen.
- Consider that a Cycle Instruction spawning a complete workflow is an alternative to using JS7 - Schedules for cyclic orders.
- The difference being that JS7 - Schedules create cyclic orders whereas the Cycle Instruction causes cyclic execution of a workflow for a single order.
- For each cyclic order a separate log entry is created while cyclic workflows report to the same log.
- Processing of cyclic workflows is by far more efficient than use of cyclic workflows.
