  </data:ProcessName>
. . .
</data:Process>

<PrimaryField> contains the name of the field in the record type that is to be used as a filter to restrict the process to certain records of the record type.

Only the Activity record type supports the use of a primary field to restrict the process.

  <data:PrimaryField>Category
  </data:PrimaryField>
. . .
</data:Process>

<TransitionField> contains the name of the field in the record type that determines the transition of records from one transition state to another.

The Status field must be used as the transition field for all supported record types.

 
<data:Process>

  <data:TransitionField>Status
  </data:TransitionField>
. . .
</data:Process>

<Description> contains the description of the process.

 
<data:Process>
. . .
  <data:Description>This is a test process.
  </data:Description>
. . .
</data:Process>

<Order> indicates the order of this process within the processes for the record type. The Order field is set to 1 by default, and you cannot update the field to a different value.

Note: If you specify an invalid value, such as a non-numeric string, for this element when you insert or update a process, then an error is returned.
 
<data:Process>

  <data:Default>true</data:Default>
. . .
</data:Process>

The <ListOfPrimaryValues> section contains the values in the primary field that are valid for the process. A record will be locked by the process only if the value in the primary field on the record is set to one of the values specified within the <ListOfPrimaryValues> section.

 
<data:Process>

  <data:ListOfPrimaryValues>
    <data:PrimaryValues>
      <data:Value>Account Call</data:Value>

   </data:ListOfTransitionStates>
</data:Process>

<State> contains the transition field value that identifies this transition state. Each transition field value can be used with only one transition state in the process.

For upsert operations, the value in the <State> element must match an existing picklist value in the Status field for the record type.
