External control of communication channel

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

I had observed that for the external control of communication channels the status is showing as "Channel Stopped",is it necessary to stop the channel , Could you please update me what are the statuses we can maintain in the case of external communication channels.

Do you see the channels managed "Automatically" or "Manually"? It may be stopped due to Availability planning schedule. A channel can be Started, Stopped, Started but inactive as I remember.

Basically there are only two statuses. Started and Stopped. In case of communication channels like SOAP, even if the channel is started and if it is waiting for message , it will show started but inactive.
