Working with the Process App
The Process app is a core app that lets you monitor all processes you created. Depending on the license assigned to your account, you can monitor:
• Processes created for the Asset Management module, such as an Advanced Export process
• Processes created for the Production Management module, such as Transcode jobs
• Sent To Playback jobs created through the Asset Editor’s Quick Send menu
When signed into MediaCentral Cloud UX as a standard user, you are allowed to see only the jobs that you submit in the Process app. If an administrator enables the Master of Jobs entitlement for a user group, the users within that group can see the list of jobs submitted by all users.
For each process, the Process app shows the process title or ID, and information about its life cycle and status. For initialized and running processes, a progress bar is shown. For active processes that allow cancellation, a Cancel button is shown to the right of the process.
You can show processes as a flat list or in groups. Processes are grouped according to the type of job, such as Transcode or Send To Playback, or group property or, if a group property is not set, grouped by their process type, such as Export or Import. Single process groups can be hidden to get a better overview by selectively displaying only one section. You can display all process groups again using the Groups filter on the Filter sidebar. Additionally, you can display the hierarchy for processes: when hierarchy display is toggled on, sub-processes are arranged under the parent process.
Finished processes — processes with status completed, failed, or canceled — are automatically removed from the Process app after 30 days.
