Start Process Instances

When you start a process, a process instance is created. All process instances, those to which you have access and those that you have created, are displayed.

You can start processes manually or automatically (event driven). Before you can manually start a process, make sure that the following is true:

• You have Process - Manage or Process - Start access right to the specific process.
• You have explicit access rights to the specific object.
• All actions, post-conditions, and pre-conditions are correctly specified.
• All of the steps are connected and the status is “Validated and Active”.
