--writeprocesslist

If you start an Aurea CRM module with this parameter, the file u8ProcessList_<Module no.>.txt containing a list of all levels ("processes") available in this module is written to the \system\db directory, see Module Numbers. The module is then closed automatically.

The file contains:

• Id: ID of the level.
• Class: Class the level belongs to (for example, levels containing the Activity info area belong to class 11000), see Level Properties in the Aurea CRM win Administrator Guide.
• Name: Name of the level in the current language.
• Type: Level type
  • core : Levels available in all verticals.
  • BB/BC/FS: Levels only available in specific verticals.
  • gen : User-defined levels, see Defining New Levels in the Aurea CRM win Administrator Guide
• Modules: Name of the module in the current language.
• Infoareas: The info areas contained in the level.

This parameter is supported by the main module as well as the Rights, Maintenance, Communication, Print, Analysis, Import and Export modules.
