The ProcessingInfo object contains a collection of properties that is used by the Job Server for processing object-specific information. For example, the ProcessingInfo object can be used to store a Report object's selection formula, prompt, and input/output directory information.

This collection of properties is also used when scheduling objects (see SchedulingInfo Object). However, while all objects that can be scheduled have the same scheduling properties, they have their own set of processing properties. In Crystal Enterprise, only report objects can be scheduled. Note that if the InfoObject cannot be scheduled—thus, cannot be "processed"—the object will return NULL.

It is recommended that for manipulating Report processing properties, you use the Report Plugin interface instead of manipulating the ProcessingInfo properties directly. For further information, see the Crystal Report Plugin Library.

Note:    You must query for the SI_PROCESSINFO bag before you can retrieve the properties of this object from a query's result set. See ProcessingInfo properties.

Example

Select SI_PROCESSINFO From CI_INFOOBJECTS Where SI_ID = 133
