Execute Import > Validate > Process using a button on a dashboard

Hi 

I have a dashboard that executes an Import > Validate > Process using a business rule.

In my workflow I am currently using Workspace, Import, Validate, Process, Confirm:

I would like to just use Workspace, Confirm, but it gives me the following error: "Cannot execute step because the specified step classification doesn't exist for the workflow profile."

 

Is there anyway around this?

 

Thanks,

Mark

I have a dashboard (which is on the Workspace step), on the dashboard I'm loading data into the Cube using a business rule. So I am automating the Import, Validate, and Process steps.

 

However, from a user perspective, I don't want them to see Import > Validate > Process. So I'm looking to see if it is possible to hide these from the user, I only really want them to interact with the dashboard.

 


I see, so that is not possible on a single Workflow. You could have 2 Workflows though:

Workflow 1 = Workspace

Workflow 2 = Import, Validate, Process, Confirm

These could be on the same Base Input Profile and control the access through the Access Group.

How are you calling the confirm execution?

I'm not automating that part - may even drop the confirm step at this stage.

To clarify - are you saying that you want to drop Import, Validate, Process from the steps going across the top of the Workflow? If so, this will likely need an enhancement in order to add that Workflow Name (Workspace, Confirm) to the Import.
