If an Error Message is triggered in the workflow, what happens to downstream processing?

When an error message is triggered in an Alteryx workflow, downstream processing ceases to function. This interruption occurs because Alteryx is designed to halt the execution of the workflow when errors are encountered to prevent further propagation of erroneous results. Consequently, any tools that are positioned downstream of the error will not execute, ensuring that the integrity of the data processing sequence is maintained. This mechanism allows users to identify and address errors before continuing with the workflow, protecting against the potential risk of incorrect data being processed or outputted.
