Debugging Processes at Runtime

This topic describes the procedure to debug processes at runtime.


You can debug processes at runtime from the Process Instance Manager (PIM).

The DebugProcess method is used to debug processes at runtime. This method allows you to debug processes in different modes, set breakpoints, and run applications in real-time while debugging them simultaneously.

  1. In the My Applications App Palette, click (Process Instance Manager). The Process Instance Manager window appears displaying a list of business processes that have process instances.
  2. Click the link to process instances of a business process model in the Total column. The Instances by Process Definition window appears displaying a list of all process instances available for the selected business process model.
  3. Right-click on a process instance whose Status is other than Complete and select Debug. Alternatively, select the checkbox against a required process instance whose Status is other than Complete and click (Open Debugger). Refer to the DebugProcess Method Elements for more information on the elements in the method. The selected process instance appears in a graphical view displaying the Process Debugger toolbar.
  4. Select any one of the options from the Process Debugger toolbar to debug the business process instance.
