"This article is intended for the newbies in process builder troubleshooting"
I am referring to a sample process builder email report down below to read thru. I have added my comments to help you understand the jargon used in the report. Please /**Read between these asterisk-tags**/
Please note that this report lists the elements that the flow interview executed. This flow report is a beta feature.
So here goes the sample one with my comments and steps enumeration added:
An error occurred at element myRule_1_A1 (FlowRecordCreate).
/**Type of process action performed on 1st action of the 1st criteria node**/
INSERT --- INSERT FAILED --- ERRORS :
(REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING) Required fields are missing: [CloseDate]

3. How the Interview Started
Sudhir Kumar (005C000000A0pDv) started the flow interview.
Some of this flow's variables were set when the interview started.
myVariable_old = a0w3B000000MylcQAC
/**“myVariable_old” contains all of the field values of the record immediately before it was changed. If “myVariable_old” has no values (null), the process is evaluating a newly created record. **/
myVariable_current = a0w3B000000MylcQAC
/**“myVariable_current” contains all of the record’s current field values.**/
3.1. ASSIGNMENT: myVariable_waitStartTimeAssignment
{!myVariable_waitStartTimeVariable} Equals {!Flow.CurrentDateTime}
/**The time when the process/flow starts**/
Result {!myVariable_waitStartTimeVariable} = "1/25/2017 5:38 AM"
3.2. DECISION: myDecision /**decision node starts**/
Executed this outcome: myRule_1
/** The number in “myRule_1” indicates that the process is executing the group of actions that are associated with the first criteria in the process. **/
Outcome conditions: and
1. {!formula_myRule_1} (true) Equals true
/**1st Formula of the process related to the 1st criteria node**/
Logic: All conditions must be true (AND)
3.3. RECORD CREATE: /**type of action**/
myRule_1_A1
/**The number A1 in “myRule_1_A1” indicates that the process is executing the 1st scheduled action that is associated with the first criteria “myRule_1”
in the process. “A1” indicates that this corresponds to the first action in
the action group.**/
Create one Opportunity record where:
Location_Address__c = {!myVariable_current.Loc_Address__c} (null)
/** myVariable_current.field Here, field is the name of the field that’s
referenced. myVariable_current refers to the field values that the record had
when it started the process.
Similarly, if there is any update, you will also get myVariable_old.field,
here, field is the name of the field that’s referenced.
myVariable_old refers to the most recent previous values of the
record that started the process. **/
Location_City__c = {!myVariable_current.Loc_City__c} (null)
/** null values in this field under current context of the record**/
Location__c = {!myVariable_current.Loc_State__c} (null)
AccountId = {!myVariable_current.SF_Account__r.Id} (001C000000q7QaWIAU)
CloseDate = {!formula_2_myRule_1_A1_CloseDate} (null)
/** 2nd formula in the process which is related to 1st action of the 1st
criteria node**/
Name = {!formula_3_myRule_1_A1_Name} (Test Account Name)
Order_Type__c = New
Test_Order__c = {!myVariable_current.Id} (a0w3B000000MylcQAC)
RecordTypeId = 0123B000000097f
StageName = Customer Review
Location_Address__c = {!myVariable_current.Loc_Address__c} (null)
Location_City__c = {!myVariable_current.Loc_City__c} (null)
Location_ST__c = {!myVariable_current.Loc_State__c} (null)
4. Result /**final result**/
Failed to create record.
Error Occurred: INSERT --- INSERT FAILED --- ERRORS : (REQUIRED_FIELD_MISSING)
Required fields are missing: [CloseDate]
/**Root cause of the error**/
To be continued..
