Introduction
A session definition is an integral part of a process control event. The session
setup process enables you to configure and edit process control session scripts.
Sessions are defined independently from the event, so the same session definition
can be scheduled multiple times.

What is a session
script?
A session script consists of a list of commands (Gentran:Server functions) that the
system executes in the sequence listed. You can set parameters for each allowable
command. You can also place conditions on the command you choose. These
conditions determine whether or not the command is executed within the session.

command. You can also place conditions on the command you choose. These
conditions determine whether or not the command is executed within the session.
You can specify two types of conditions: The system can query for the presence or
absence of a specific file; the system can determine whether or not documents
exist in a specific location. If the evaluated condition is true, the command is
executed. If the condition is false, the command is skipped and processing
continues with the next defined command.
