Workflow errors and reports
Workflow history is logged in two modules in Varicent Incentive Compensation Management (ICM). General workflow history is tracked in the Audit log, and node-specific history is tracked in Workflows.
If a workflow encounters an error, you can view the details of the error on the Errors tab in Workflows. You can view the error and identify the node that caused the error.
When an Action node encounters an error, such as when the next payee involved in the workflow cannot be determined, an error is recorded on the Action node errors page.
When an Alert node encounters an error, such as an invalid email address, an error is recorded on the Service node errors page.
For the workflow to advance, an administrator must intervene.

If the Scheduler service started after the workflow started, you can also see any process nodes that were unable to initiate in the workflow.
In Workflows, open the workflow.
Click the Pending Actions tab.
Rerunning a process node
In Varicent Incentive Compensation Management (ICM), if a process node was stopped because the Scheduler service was started after the workflow began, you can restart the process node.

Click the Pending Actions tab.
Place your cursor over the process node, click the ellipsis, and complete one of the following steps:
To rerun the Scheduler process, click Rerun Process.
