Mapping a process value to a field or parameter in another process


The Process List component is available in the Shared Components section of the View designer, and is visible only if the following bundles are deployed: 

  • Shared Components
  • ITSM Application

As an application business analyst, you might want to know the processes associated with an application to map the values of a process to a field name or parameter in another process. For example, when a user creates a ticket, the initialization step captures and stores the requester information, such as the requester name, email, and ID. You might want to map these values to a parameter in another process. 

The Process List component allows you to select the default and custom processes associated with an application. 

The Process List component is a Record editor type component and can be added only if a Record editor is added to the view definition.

Important

Application business analysts can customize the objects developed in their own applications and that are marked customizable by the administrator, but cannot customize the objects developed in com.bmc.arsys in the Best Practice Customization mode. For example, objects in core BMC applications like Foundation, Approval, and Assignment cannot be customized in Best Practice Customization mode. For more information, see Customization layer
