Hi,

Is it possible to kick off a chore with an action button? I have a few processes that I grouped in a chore (but do not schedule it). So up until now I have kicked off the chore either from TM1Web or the TM1 server explorer. Now I would like to kick it off from a websheet in Tm1Web using an Action Button.

We are on TM1 9.1 SP3.

Thank you in advance.

No you can't kick off a chore with an action button. (Why not is a good question, but you can't).

What you can do instead is create a "shell process" and call the other processes from the prolog of the shell with the ExecuteProcess function. Then you can kick off the shell process with an action button, this should do what you want.

Thanks, this helped. I have now created a shell process that executes both processes and I can now kick it off with an action button.
