Stop Step
Stop is the last step in every process. Each process must have the Stop step. To run an expression at the end of a process, add it to the Stop step. This is useful for destroying a message object that was set in the Start step.
Stop Step Properties
When you double-click the stop step on the canvas, you can specify the following step properties in the Properties tab displayed at the bottom.
Name
Description
Name
Displays the step name. By default, it is Stop and you cannot change this name.
Description
(Optional) Description for the step.
Enabled
Enables the step for execution. You cannot disable this step.
Error Handling
Select either of the following:
• Stop Process - (Default) All the steps after the current step are skipped or the entire process is stopped (depending on how you have the error logging options set) if this step stops due to an error.
• Ignore Error - The remaining steps in this process are executed even if this step stops due to an error. This is useful when you want to write a Decision step that can test for the error state of a previous step.
Note:  The Break after first error Logging Option overrides the Ignore Error option, hence when you set the Ignore Error option at component level, you should disable the Break after first error Logging Option for the Ignore Error to be effective.
Expression
Any expression that you want to execute after the process ends. Type the expression or click Open to open the EZscript Expressions window and specify the expression.
Script
Script containing expressions that you want to execute after the process ends. Click Browse and specify the script file that to be executed.
Note:  You can specify an Expression or a Script but not both.
