Geoprocessing
Configure the Geoprocessing tool to give users the option to use geoprocessing tasks within your WebOffice 10.9 R4 project. Geoprocessing tasks are part of geoprocessing services that can be shared from your results in ArcMap. If you execute a task in a geoprocessing service, it executes this task on the server computer using resources of the server computer. Configure one geoprocessing tool for each geoprocessing task you want to provide with you WebOffice 10.9 R4 project (even if the geoprocessing service you are using includes multiple geoprocessing tasks).
This chapter only refers to the configuration of the Geoprocessing tool in WebOffice author standalone. For more information about preconditions, first go through the HowTo chapter Prepare a Geoprocessing Service as well as the ArcGIS Resources - What is a geoprocessing service?. |
A geoprocessing tool that requires input parameters not supported by WebOffice 10.9 R4 will be ignored. |
