When you execute a run you are instructing the Absyntax Excel Add-in to invoke all configured, valid and enabled project invocation rules.   Depending on the chosen execution mode, rules are invoked either synchronously or asynchronously.  Synchronous rules are invoked in the order in which they are defined.

 

By invoking rules synchronously you allow the output of each target Absyntax project to be written to a Microsoft Excel worksheet before the next rule is invoked, meaning that the next target project can, if required, be supplied with data updated as a result of a previous invocation.  By invoking rules asynchronously, on the other hand, you can execute a run more quickly because all rules are invoked at the same time.  Asynchronous runs can be particularly useful if you have several long-running projects to invoke or you have several projects which are configured to reload before each invocation.

 

To execute a run you must have a suitable, active Absyntax licence.
