Categorizing a process typecode

For your type of custom process to run, you need to associate its typecode with appropriate categories in the BatchProcessType typelist. You must categorize the typecode whether you implemented a custom work queue or a custom batch process. You must add at least one runnable category or your type of custom batch processing cannot run.

The following list describes the valid runnable categories.

UIRunnable

The process is runnable both from the user interface and from the web service APIs.

APIRunnable

The process is runnable only from web service APIs.

Schedulable

It is possible to schedule the process to execute at specific dates and times.

MaintenanceOnly

Is is only possible to run the process if the system is at maintenance run level.

The Work Queue Info screen shows your custom work queue, regardless how you categorize your process type code. Categorizing a process type code affects only whether the Batch Process Info screen displays custom batch processes and writers for work queues and their runnable characteristics.
