Processing Center

The Processing Center provides visibility into all data processing activity in Ataccama ONE. Use it to monitor workflows, manage scheduled jobs, and inspect individual DPM jobs.

Access the Processing Center

To access the Processing Center, select Processing center in the main navigation menu.

Quick view

Selecting Processing center opens a quick view popover showing recent activity. This provides an at-a-glance summary without leaving your current page.

The quick view displays two tabs:

Processing workflows: Recent workflows with their name, start time, and status.
Scheduled jobs: Upcoming scheduled jobs.

Each tab shows a count of total items. To open the full Processing Center, select Open Processing center at the bottom of the popover.

The quick view is useful for checking recent workflow status or upcoming scheduled jobs without navigating away from your current task.

Full view

The full Processing Center page provides comprehensive job management and is organized into three tabs:

Workflows: Monitor processing workflows and their constituent jobs.
Scheduled jobs: View and manage job schedules.
DPM jobs: Inspect individual jobs processed by the Data Processing Module.

Workflows

The Workflows tab displays processing workflows. Workflows are operations that bundle multiple jobs together, such as running a transformation plan, executing a "profile and evaluate" action on a catalog item, or running a DQ monitor.

View workflows

Workflows are listed with their name, start time, and overall status. Select a workflow row to expand it and see the individual jobs it contains, such as Anomaly detection, DQ, or Profiling.

Use the filtering options to find specific workflows:

Search: Search workflows by name.
Started in: Filter by time range (Last hour, Last day, Last week, Last month).
Status: Filter by workflow status (Failed, Completed, In progress, Skipped, Canceled, Pending).

View workflow details

Select a workflow name to open its detail page.

The workflow detail page displays:

General information: Workflow ID, status, type, owner, creation and completion timestamps, and duration.
Job breakdown: Individual jobs within the workflow, organized by processing stage (for example, Resolving dependencies, Running preview, Processing results). Each stage shows its completion status and the number of jobs completed.

Scheduled jobs

The Scheduled jobs tab lists all job schedules configured in Ataccama ONE. Schedules automate recurring tasks such as DQ evaluation, lookup rebuilds, and system maintenance.

You cannot create or edit schedules from this view. To modify a schedule, select the item in the Source column to navigate to where the schedule is defined.

View scheduled jobs

The schedule list displays the following information:

Action: The type of scheduled job (for example, DQ configuration schedule, Lookup rebuild, User sync schedule).
Source: The path to the asset or configuration associated with the schedule. Select the source to navigate to the schedule configuration.
Cron expression: The schedule frequency in human-readable format (for example, "Every day at 00:00") or cron syntax.
Next run: The next scheduled execution time, or "Disabled" if the schedule is inactive.

Use the search bar to find schedules by name or source path. Select Hidden columns to customize which columns are displayed.

View schedule details

Select a schedule row to open its details in a sidebar panel. The sidebar displays:

Description: Optional description of the schedule.
General information: Cron expression, enabled status, ignore misfires setting, time zone, start and end dates, priority, and next run time.
Info: Next scheduled run and last job execution.

To view the full schedule detail page, select the schedule name in the sidebar header. The detail page includes an Overview tab with schedule configuration and a History tab showing past executions.

Manage scheduled jobs

To perform bulk actions on schedules, use the checkboxes to select one or more rows. A toolbar appears at the bottom of the screen with the following options:

Delete: Remove the selected schedules.
Export: Export schedule information.

DPM jobs

The DPM jobs tab provides direct access to individual jobs processed by the Data Processing Module. This view offers detailed technical information useful for monitoring, debugging, and performance analysis.

View DPM jobs

The job list displays:

Name: The job name or identifier.
Engine: The Data Processing Engine (DPE) that processed or is processing the job.
Type: The job type (for example, DQC, DQ_EVAL_CATALOG_ITEM, PUSHDOWN-PROFILING, LOOKUP-CREATE, PROFILING).
Created: The date and time the job was created.
Submitting User: The user who initiated the job.
Status: Current job status (Running, Starting, Queued, Success, Failure, Killing, Killed).
Priority: The job’s priority value.
Progress: Completion percentage.

See here for a full list of possible job statuses and their descriptions

UNKNOWN: Default initial state for newly created jobs.
SUBMITTED: Job has been submitted to the data processing pipeline.
PREPROCESSING: Job is in the preprocessing stage of the pipeline.
QUEUED: Job is waiting in queue to be sent to the data processing engine.
SUBMITTING: Job is being submitted to the data processing engine.
SUBMITTED_TO_ENGINE: Job has been successfully submitted to the data processing engine.
STARTING: Data processing engine is initializing the job.
RUNNING: Job is actively being processed by the engine.
PROCESSED: Job processing has been completed by the engine.
POSTPROCESSING: Job is in the final postprocessing stage.
SUCCESS: Terminal state indicating successful job completion.
FAILURE: Terminal state indicating job failure.
KILLING: Job has been selected for termination by user.
KILLED: Job has been successfully terminated.
DISCONNECTED: Engine has disconnected and associated jobs are marked accordingly. If the engine reconnects before timeout, the job reverts to its standard state.
EVICTED: Job requires restart due to pipeline rescheduling. This status indicates that part of the data processing pipeline needed to be rescheduled, and the job needs to be restarted at that stage of the pipeline.

Use the following options to customize your view:

Search: Search jobs by name or identifier.
Status: Filter by job status.
Hidden columns: Show or hide specific columns.
Clear sort: Reset column sorting.
Refresh: Manually refresh the job list, or enable auto-refresh at intervals of 5, 10, 20, or 30 seconds, or 1 minute.

View job details

The job detail page provides comprehensive technical information for debugging and analysis.

The page includes:

General Information: Job name, ID, user, type, start and end times, and status.
Processing Workflow: Links to open the parent workflow or workflow job detail.
Priority: Adjust job priority (higher values indicate higher priority).
Events: Link to view related events.

You can also select a job row to open its details in a sidebar panel.

Runtime Information

The Runtime Information section provides detailed technical data organized into four tabs:

Submit Details: Job submission details including file locations, configuration settings, data source information, and execution plans. This covers the locations of working, job, and runtime folders, runtime and server configurations, data source and catalog item details, entity, component, and plan structures, entity attributes, and launch type (for profiling jobs).
Stdout: Standard output stream from job processing.
Stderr: Standard error stream from job processing.
Others: Additional information such as dependency properties (listing lookups and components used in the job) and job PID.

The Stdout and Stderr tabs are useful for debugging, as they provide direct access to processing output without searching through log files.

View job events

Events trace the stages a job passes through from submission to completion. This information helps identify where and why a job failed.

To view events for a specific job, select open related events in the job details sidebar.

The events list displays:

Sequential ID: A consecutive number assigned when the event was initiated.
Job ID: The identifier of the associated job. This identifier can be used to retrieve all events related to a single job.
Created: The date and time the event was created.
Data: Event data, typically status or progress information in JSON format.
Description: Additional context for the event.

Change job priority

You can adjust the priority of jobs to control processing order. Priority is expressed as an integer value. Jobs with higher priority values are processed before jobs with lower values. The default priority is 0. Jobs with equal priority are processed in the order they were submitted.

To change a job’s priority:

Select the job row to open the details sidebar.
In the Priority section, enter a new value.
The change takes effect immediately for queued jobs.

Cancel jobs

You can cancel jobs that have not yet completed. Cancellation can fail if the job is too far into the process at the time of cancellation. Additionally, canceling one job can affect other running jobs.

After canceling jobs, check the Processing Center to confirm the cancellation was successful and to see if any other jobs were affected.

Cancel a single job

In the job list, locate the job you want to cancel.
Select the three-dot menu for the job row.
Select Kill Job.

Cancel all active jobs

To cancel all active jobs at once:

In the banner, select Cancel all jobs.
Confirm the action when prompted.

Canceling jobs affects all submitted, running, starting, and queued jobs. Canceled jobs cannot be resumed.
