Using Custom Operators

You can use a custom operator in a process or schedule like any other operator. Keep these points in mind when working with custom operators:

• Initial values for the custom operator parameters may be pre-configured or hidden.
• New custom parameter inputs may exist that require configuration.
• Your custom operator will appear in a folder called Uncategorized unless you set a custom group name on the Custom Operator dialog Settings tab.
• If a custom operator is not available at the time that your process was opened for editing, make the custom operator available, and refresh the operator group folder again.
• If a custom operator is not available at the time that your schedule was opened for editing, make the custom operator available, and refresh the operator group folder again.
• You must refresh the operator group folder in a process or schedule to see any changes made to the custom operator's name or other settings.
• You must close and re-open a process or schedule to see any changes to existing custom operators.
• Any process or schedule using a custom operator uses the latest checked-in version that is marked as Current in the Library Browser.
