* go to the next step if XDS does not do so automatically. This can happen for the IDXREF step: if the indexing does not give unambiguous results, XDS stops after IDXREF. If the user decides that the data reduction should be continued (because no error actually exists), XDS can then be run with JOB=DEFPIX INTEGRATE CORRECT. This works because IDXREF, even though it prints an error message, generates the file XPARM.XDS which is required for the DEFPIX and INTEGRATE steps. | * go to the next step if XDS does not do so automatically.

* repeat a step to try different parameter values. This may be the case for IDXREF, to try different space group possibilities.

In all cases it is important to realize that only those steps need to be repeated which produce different outcomes than those done earlier. For example, for [[space group determination]] one only needs to run CORRECT several times, and not IDXREF DEFPIX INTEGRATE CORRECT. | In all cases it is important to realize that only those steps need to be repeated which produce different outcomes than those done earlier.
