Executing the Subprocess Call step with the selected Group Call parameter supposes that on executing the subprocess, several subprocess instances will be started according to the specified splitting parameters. Subprocesses can be started manually or automatically depending on step settings.
Consider the case of the process with two nested subprocesses in manual mode:
The with manual startup.
The with automatic startup.
For example, the Creating Insurance Expense Budget process tree:
To execute the Subprocess Call step, follow the steps:
Execute one of the operations:
In the web application select a subprocess in the working area and click the Finish button.
NOTE. Subprocess instances are started according to process and subprocess connection settings.
In the desktop application:
Select the subprocess in the process tree or in the working area and click the Finish button. To set group call parameters, open the Subprocess Call dialog box:
The values, for which subprocess will be started, are selected by default in the Start Parameters area. Values are selected according to the settings specified in the Subprocess Call step wizard.
Click the Start N Processes button where N is the number of started process instances.
As a result, the subprocesses are started:
A single subprocess instance will be started for each parameter.
The instances of nested subprocesses are started automatically for the subprocess with automatic execution method.
In the monitoring window:
In the web application the list of running process or subprocesses is displayed on the side panel. The list of running instances of the selected process or subprocess is displayed in the working area.
NOTE. To display the process instances related to the selected subprocess step in the working area, open the process as a nested object.
In the desktop application the list of running subprocesses and subprocess instances is displayed in the process tree.
Execute all steps of a single subprocess instance.
NOTE. In the desktop application the executed subprocess instance is displayed in the process tree with all steps after it is finished, if the Show Finished Processes Instances that are Subprocesses checkbox is selected on the Parameters page in the Parameters Setup and Business Processes Administration dialog box.
Restart subprocess instances if required.
NOTE. In the desktop application one can restart subprocess instances only if the Show Finished Processes instances that are Subprocesses checkbox is selected on Parameters page in the Parameters Setup and Business Processes Administration dialog box.
After executing subprocess steps one can view the execution log. It is available only in the desktop application.
