# 2. Command Settings

After configuring [Schedule Settings](/app-help/documentation/bolt/creating-schedules/schedule-settings.md) of a Bolt Schedule, you’ll specify the commands you want the schedule to execute. **Command Settings** allow you to define which commands run when the schedule is triggered, supporting a variety of workflows.

### Overview

With **Command Settings**, you can:

* Select [commands](#explore-paradime-supported-commands-in-bolt) (dbt™, Elementary Data, and others) to run in Paradime
* Set the order of command execution
* Customize options for each command
* Create custom command combinations to suit your workflows

### Commands execution logic

Paradime follows a specific command execution logic to handle errors and determine whether subsequent tasks should be executed. Here's how it works:

1. **Command Completion with Error**: When a command in a Paradime schedules completes with an error, the subsequent tasks in the job will be skipped by default.&#x20;
2. **Exceptions to Skipping Subsequent Tasks**: Despite the default behavior of skipping subsequent tasks on error, there are a few exceptions where the subsequent tasks will still be executed:&#x20;
   1. **Source Freshness and Source Status**: If the command that encountered an error is a [`dbt source freshness`](/app-help/concepts/dbt-fundamentals/running-dbt/mastering-the-dbt-cli/commands.md#source-freshness) command and the following command is using the [`source_status:fresher`](/app-help/concepts/dbt-fundamentals/running-dbt/mastering-the-dbt-cli/methods.md#source_status-method) dbt™ selector method, the subsequent command will still be executed ([Check our Bolt Template](/app-help/documentation/bolt/creating-schedules/templates/dbt-tm-templates/deferred-model-execution.md)).
   2. **Elementary CLI Command**: If the next command in the schedule is an [Elementary CLI ](/app-help/documentation/bolt/creating-schedules/command-settings/elementary-commands.md)command, it will be executed regardless of the error in the previous command to enable [sending alerts](/app-help/documentation/integrations/observability/elementary-data/sending-alerts.md) and [generating reports](/app-help/documentation/integrations/observability/elementary-data/generate-observability-report.md) on tests failures.
   3. **Montecarlo Command**: If the next command is a Montecarlo command, it will be executed even if the previous command encountered an error to upload dbt™ resources.
