      <Paragraph>A control activity in a business process represents a question
		that must be answered to continue the business process in a certain
		direction.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>The answer to the question is placed in a variable, which is
		referred to as a condition. If the question concerns an implementation choice,
		the answer is stored in a variable referred to as a static
		condition.</Paragraph>

      <SectionTitle>Static Conditions (tgbrg5580m000)</SectionTitle>
      <Paragraph>To create and maintain static conditions, use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tg/brg/tgbrg5580m000" role="session">Static Conditions (tgbrg5580m000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>For each static condition, you must select a default value,
		which is set to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tg/domains/yeno#no" role="option">No</GUIRef> by default; however, you can change this value to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tg/domains/yeno#yes" role="option">Yes</GUIRef> in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tg/brg/tgbrg5580m000#tgbrg580.defa" role="manual">Default</GUIRef> field.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>Depending on the presence of particular business functions in
		the business function model, the values of static conditions can be changed
		using static condition setting rules. The default values of the static
		conditions you select in this session are used to determine the value of a
		static condition if the static condition rule does not evaluate to true, or
		does not evaluate at all.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>As a standard, the default value must be set to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tg/domains/yeno#no" role="option">No</GUIRef>;
		therefore, only the rules that change the value of static conditions to <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tg/domains/yeno#yes" role="option">Yes</GUIRef> must be
		defined.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>To see the result of a static condition, you must incorporate
		the business process in which the static condition is used in a business model.
		Then, you must carry out the static condition setting rules.</Paragraph>
