Unpublishing a Process Monitoring Object

This topic describes the procedure to unpublish a Process Monitoring Object.

You must unpublish a Process Monitoring Object to stop monitoring the selected attributes. If you unpublish a Process Monitoring Object, it becomes inactive. The business data is not collected for such Process Monitoring Objects, and the metadata from runtime is not removed as it is required for republishing.

1. In the Workspace Documents (Explorer) window, right-click the published (Process Monitoring Object) and select Unpublish. During unpublish, Confirm dialog appears stating - Do you want to retain old data that talks about the business data collected till that time. If you choose to delete or retain the business data, a message stating - Process Monitoring Object Unpublished successfully, appears as a notification. If you choose to retain the business data, the business data is retained.
   Note: If the Process Monitoring Object is not published before, Unpublish is triggered, and a message stating - Process Monitoring Object is not published appears.
2. If you select Yes or No, then Process Monitoring Object Unpublished successfully appears as a notification. 

   Note:

   • If the Process Monitoring Object is already unpublished, then the message stating - Process Monitoring Object already Unpublished appears.

   • If the selected Process Monitoring Object fails to get unpublished, an exception message appears stating the error.

   The selected Process Monitoring Object is unpublished.
