You can launch BPs manually by selecting an activity and choosing Edit > Linked Business Process > Start. To manually launch BPs, these conditions must be met:
- Activity has the status Not Started
- BP setup is present on the activity
Note: A BP can be launched manually to override the setting of the Auto-control flag on the Schedule Sheet Properties and Auto-update Activity Data on the Activity Properties.
Manual launch under various conditions:
Auto-control on Schedule Sheet Properties | Auto-update Activity Status on Activity | System Behavior |
|---|---|---|
On/Off | Checked | Manually launched BP is tracked by the system, and actuals will be auto-populated on launch and completion. |
On/Off | Unchecked | Scope Management will not keep track of BP completion and auto-population of actual start and finish dates of manually launched BP. |
