When you start a Manual Merge job, the Merge Manager displays a dialog with a progress indicator. A manual merge can take some time to complete. If problems occur during processing, an error message is displayed on completion. This error also shows up in the job execution log for the Manual Merge job in the Batch Viewer.

In the Merge Manager, the process dialog includes a button labeled

Mark process as incomplete

that updates the status of the Manual Merge job but does not abort the Manual Merge job. If you click this button, the merge process continues in the background. At this point, there will be an entry in the Batch Viewer for this process. When the process completes, the success or failure is reported. For more information about the Merge Manager, see the
