| # Business Processes by Project Model (tgbrg4160s000) Use this session to display and maintain the business-process details. Because business processes are initially created in the Business Processes (tgbrg5500m000) session, you can change most of the details in that session only. If your current modeling version is not the same as the version of the project model in which the business process is incorporated, you cannot maintain any details. Related topics Versions Sequence sequence number. This number only takes effect in the Business Processes by Project Model (tgbrg4560m000) session. Note If a business process is added to a business model, the sequence number is automatically increased by one. This value can be overwritten. Use the Expand Process Structure command and the Collapse Process Structure command to number the business processes in such a way that they indicate which subprocesses belong to which (main) process. For example, the subprocesses of (main) process 10 are numbered 11, 12, 13 ,and so on. Business Process A set of one or more activities and states that collectively realize a business objective.

Version A group of model items that share some characteristics, such as the customer, owner, and effective date. Version The description or name of the version.

Business Process Category The description or name of the business process. Owner The logon code of the owner. Owner The name of the owner.

Set by Rule The transformation rule as a result of which the business process is included in the project model when the Transform Function Model to Process Model by Project Model (tgbrg4200m000) session is run. Set by Rule The description or name of the transformation rule. Target Date Mode Specify the method that will be used to determine the target date for the business process. This target date mode will also be used by the activities within the business process unless otherwise specified. Relative Specify the number of days that must be added to the date on which the business process is initiated to calculate the target date. Calculate The formula to calculate the target date and time for the complete business process and the activities within the business process unless otherwise specified. Related topics Calculated date and time formula definitions Calculate The description or name of the model item. Relative Target Date Time Specify the time (hours:minutes:seconds) that must be added to the time on which the business process is initiated to calculate the target date time. Estimated Duration in Days The number of days that it takes in general to finish the business process. Estimated Duration Time The time that must be added to the number of days specified in the Estimated Duration in Days field to get the total time it in general takes to finish the business process.

User The user who made the last changes in this session. User The name of the user who made the last changes in this session. Allow direct instantiation by Work List Handler If this check box is selected, the business process can be initiated (started) via the Worklist Handler.

Diagram Status The description or name of the status. URL The URL that can be started from the business process.

This field can have the following values: Workflow Status This field indicates the status of the business process for Workflow.
