Chapter 9. Deploying projects
Once you have created a project with your Process definition and relevant resources, you need to build it and deploy it to the Process engine. Once deployed, you can create Process instances based on the deployed resources.
To deploy your project from Business Central, do the following:
- Open the
Project Editoron your project (in Project Explorer navigate to your project and in the top menu, click → ). - You can define the Kie Base and Kie Session properties. If not, the default kbase and ksession will be used.
- On the top menu, click the
button.
9.1. Process instances
Once you have modeled and deployed a Process definition along with all the resources it requires, you can create its runtime instance, which will run on the Process engine.
From the Business Central you can further manage the instance during runtime, monitor its execution, and work with the Tasks the instance produces if having the proper roles assigned.

To instantiate a deployed Process definition, do the following:
- Display the
Process Definitionsview: on the top menu, click → . - Look up the Process Definition and in the respective row, click the Instantiate

- In the list on the Process Instances tab, locate the required running Process instance and click the
button in the instance row.
