# Handle Failed Documents

You cannot start a processor until all of its relationships are connected to other processors, or are auto-terminated. So far, this example has not connected or auto-terminated the "failed" relationship for the new processors that you added.

This section shows how to route failed documents to an output port. If nothing takes data from the output port and the output port remains stopped, any failed documents wait indefinitely in the preceding queue. You can periodically check the queue to determine the cause of the failures and, if necessary, empty the queue.

To handle failed documents

1. Add an output port, by dragging the output port icon from the components toolbar to the canvas.

   The Add Port dialog box opens.

2. In the Output Port Name box, type a name for the output port and click ADD.

   The output port is added to the canvas.

3. Create a connection from the KeyViewRouteOnFileType processor to the output port and select the failure relationship.
4. Create a connection from the AnalyzeMedia processor to the output port and select the failure relationship.
