Chapter 7. Process export and import
7.1. Creating a Process definition
Make sure you have logged in to JBoss BPM Suite or you are in JBoss Developer Studio with the repository connected.
To create a Process, do the following:
- Open the Project Authoring perspective (Authoring → Project Authoring).
- In
Project Explorer
(Project Authoring → Project Explorer), navigate to the project where you want to create the Process definition (in the Project view, select the respective repository and project in the drop-down lists; in the Repository view, navigate toREPOSITORY/PROJECT/src/main/resources/
directory).Note
It is recommended to create your resources, including your Process definitions, in a package of a Project to allow importing of resources and their referencing. To create a package, do the following:- In the Repository view of the Project Explorer, navigate to the
REPOSITORY/PROJECT/src/main/resources/
directory. - Go to New Item → Package.
- In the New resource dialog, define the package name and check the location of the package in the repository.
- From the perspective menu, go to New Item → Business Process.
- In the New Processes dialog box, enter the Process name and click OK. Wait until the Process Editor with the Process diagram appears.
