Is there a way to pick up the name of the chore a process is executing in? I was hoping to provide the name of the chore when outputting to e mail the error code if any of the processes fail

Not directly.

If a process is shared between chores, we typically call them from a single parent process via ExecuteProcess. The Chore name is defined as a constant in the parent process, and a parameter in the child processes. The parent process then passes the constant via the parameter, so that whenever the child process needs to output something it has the chore name available.

Thanks for the reply!

I also found out that the TM1User() function will output the chore name when run in a scheduled chore. Unfortunately we have to trigger the chores due to an unknown data warehouse update time.

Thanks

Good point; I should have mentioned that.
