While executing a flow Switch executes processes and moves jobs between processes according to the specifications in the flow definition. However there are situations where a process fails to handle a job properly and it no longer makes sense for the job to move along the flow in its usual fashion. In those cases, Switch moves the job to the problem jobs folder, a central location for jobs that require human intervention.
Important examples of why a job may be moved to the problem jobs folder include:
The job has an invalid file format causing a third-party application to issue a fatal error message.
The job matches none of the file filters set on the outgoing connections of a particular folder.
Switch offers a number of facilities for handling problem jobs, from detecting their presence to re-injecting them in the flow after the problem has been resolved.
