You can monitor loopbacks associated with global process events

...

Each time a loopback is created, the accounting engine writes a record to the ESTAR_LOOPBACK_EVENTS table. When the engine is finished processing the loopback, the record is updated. The Global Process Center looks to this table to determine whether the engine has finished processing an event.

About the Global Process Workspace

For monitoring, the Global Process workspace is divided into the following areas:

  • Loopbacks Summary. Upper pane that displays the loopback summary timeframe and associated statistics including loopback status and high level totals.
  • Loopbacks Search. Criteria to search for loopbacks.
  • Loopbacks Information. Center pane. Displays the status of each submitted and processed job for the specified system date and other search criteria.
  • Loopback Details. Bottom pane. Displays account and security details for the selected job.

You can query and review processed or pending jobs.

The following are key options on the Global Process Center toolbar:

  • Last 24 Hours. Displays metrics for jobs that have been processed and rejected in the last 24 hours.
  • LoopBacks Details. Displays account and security detail for each submitted and processed job for the current system date.

When processing is completed, the loopback is assigned a Processed status Image Removed or a Rejected status Image Removed .
