Add Operator Ports and Links

Place a link between operators to establish the logical flow. For example, link the Start operator to the next operator to begin a process flow. Links connect one of any number of exit ports on one operator to the single fixed entry port of another.

Follow these steps:

  1. Open a process.

    The Process Designer tab appears. If not already checked out, click Check Out.

  2. Identify a source operator, its exit port, and a destination operator's entry port.
  3. On the source operator, if the exit port you want does not appear, right-click the operator and then click the port you want to add. Port types vary by operator. Examples include Failed, Completed, After, and Custom.

    A new color-coded exit port appears on the operator's border.

  4. Click the exit port on the source operator and drag the link to the entry port of the destination operator.

    A new link appears between the two operators.

  5. Repeat these steps, adding links and, if necessary, ports between operators to define the process flow.
  6. In the toolbar, click Save.
