Using the Subprocess View
You use the Subprocess view to define a step for invoking a subprocess, including the input and output arguments.
The top portion of the view, the Subprocess applet, is where you can perform various tasks. The lower portion has two applets: Input Arguments and Output Arguments. Input and output arguments allow you to pass values to the subprocess properties.
The tasks you can perform in this view are:
- Define a subprocess step. See Defining a Subprocess Step.
- Delete an existing subprocess step. See Deleting a Step or Process.
- Copy a subprocess step. See Copying a Process.
