Work with errors

An error is any issue encountered when a job is processed. Errors can appear from anywhere in the application. When errors occur, find more information about the cause of the error from the Errors page. On the Errors page, system administrators and portal administrators can view all application errors in the portal and specific details about each error. Use these details to troubleshoot jobs before resubmitting the jobs.

For portal administrators, when organization security is enabled, the list of available items depends on membership in a provider or client organization. To understand how organizations are managed in the application, see Organizations. For a summary of how organization security affects portal access for each application user category, see the Portal security table.
