# ErrorConfiguration Element (XMLA)
  Specifies settings for handling errors that can occur during a [Batch](../../../analysis-services/xmla/xml-elements-commands/batch-element-xmla.md) or [Process](../../../analysis-services/xmla/xml-elements-commands/process-element-xmla.md) operation.  
  
## Syntax  
  
```xml  
  
<Batch> <!-- or Process -->  
   ...  
   <ErrorConfiguration>  
      <KeyErrorLimit>...</KeyErrorLimit>  
      <KeyErrorLogFile>...</KeyErrorLogFile>  
      <KeyErrorAction>...</KeyErrorAction>  
      <KeyErrorLimitAction>...</KeyErrorLimitAction>  
      <KeyNotFound>...</KeyNotFound>  
      <KeyDuplicate>...</KeyDuplicate>  
      <NullKeyConvertedToUnknown>...</NullKeyConvertedToUnknown>  
      <NullKeyNotAllowed>...<NullKeyNotAllowed>  
   </ErrorConfiguration>  
   ...  
</Batch>  
```
