# Run batch simulations with post-processing

Post-processing tasks within the batch runner are optional for a batch of simulations. If post-processing tasks are defined then they can be run in conjunction with simulations by ticking the box next to the run simulations button – in the toolbar, as shown below:

Alternatively, post-processing tasks can be run in isolation from any simulations, i.e. processing data from simulations already run. To do this, first add the completed simulations to a batch and specify the required post-processing tasks.Then click the Run button in the post-processing section of the batch runner toolbar, as shown below:

Note the batch runner tool will display progress through the requested post-processing tasks just as it does for simulations.
