Hold types are a way to categorize job holds. Each hold type is a potential reason for a restriction to be put on a job for an unspecified amount of time. When a hold is put on a job, it is tagged with its hold type. When somebody goes to look at the holds on a job (both active and inactive), they can categorize them into types before specifically looking at the detailed reason.

Complete these steps to add a hold type:

  1. Start ArcGIS Workflow Manager (Classic) Administrator and connect to your Workflow Manager (Classic) database.
  2. Expand Job Components > Hold Types.

    The list shows all the currently configured hold types. If no hold types exist, the list will be blank.

  3. Right-click Hold Types and click Add Hold Type.

    The Hold Type Properties dialog box appears.

  4. Provide a name for your hold type in the Hold Type Name text box.
  5. Provide a description for your hold type in the Description text box.
  6. Click OK.
