Configuring geoprocessing settings for a step
In Task Assistant Manager, you can associate ArcMap or custom geoprocessing scripts with a task assistant workflow step. When you associate multiple geoprocessing tools within a single step, tools are executed from top to bottom, in the order in which they appear in the Selected Geoprocessing Items area of the Geoprocessing Item Editor dialog box.
You can change the execution order by highlighting a tool in the Selected Geoprocessing Items area and using the up and down arrows in the Geoprocessing Item Editor dialog box to move the tool in the list.
Task Assistant Manager searches the following locations for geoprocessing items:
- System Toolboxes folder
- My Toolboxes folder
- Home folder (location of your open map document)
- Default geodatabase for the open map document
In order for custom items to be included in the Geoprocessing Item Editor dialog, ensure that they are located in one of the above locations.
All custom toolboxes need to be created with an entry in the Alias field for the toolbox to be displayed in the Geoprocessing Item Editor dialog box.
