The System Console provides details on active and completed tasks, files imported and exported by PhixFlow, and the audit trail of changes made to PhixFlow's configuration.
Active Tasks
Displays a log file summary for each task that is currently active.
If a Log File is selected from the list with a right click, the Show Log File option can be chosen from the context menu to bring up the log file.
Active Tasks can be stopped at any time, if required (this may be useful when testing new models) by pressing the button.
Completed Tasks
Displays a log file summary for each task that has completed.
If a Log File is selected from the list with a right click, the Show Log Details option can be chosen from the context menu to bring up the log file.
If the stream sets generated by an analysis run were rolled back and the analysis repeated (see under Stream Sets form below), the log file entry will have a button in the Status field. Pressing this button will bring up the new log file that was produced when the Analysis run was redone.
If the stream sets generated by an analysis run were rolled back, the log file entry will have a button in the Status field. Pressing this button will bring up the log file for the rollback.

Stream Sets
The Stream Sets for the currently selected Task.
If the Stream Sets generated by an Analysis run produced a number of Cycles, and one or more Cycle was rolled back and repeated, then Status field will contain a symbol to indicate whether:
- this Stream Set was originally generated as part of this Analysis run, but has been moved forward into the log for the Analysis to generate those Stream Sets which were rolled back and repeated.
- this Stream Set was moved forward into this log from the original Analysis run, along side new Stream Sets generated in this Analysis run - the new Stream Sets are those that were rolled back to be redone from the original log.
Log File
For each Task Plan or Analysis Task run, a Log File is generated. These can be viewed in the Task Logs view. While a task is running the Log File can be viewed in the Active Tasks list, once it has finished it can be viewed in the Completed Tasks list.
