Annotating a process
Promote sharing information with other members of your development team by annotating a process. When you document the functionality of a process, you can quickly communicate how a process works or fits business requirements, and consequently speed up application development and avoid unnecessary changes that might come from insufficient understanding of a functionality.
For example, by analyzing annotations, new team members can quickly understand why certain actions occur in a process.- In the navigation pane of Dev Studio, click Case types, and then click the case type that you want to open.
- On the Workflow tab, click Life cycle.
- Hover over a process in a stage, and then click the Configure process icon.
- On the toolbar, click the Add a flow shape icon, and then click Annotation.
- Double-click the Annotation shape, and then replace the default text with your notes or comments.
- Optional: To adjust the size of the Annotation shape to fit the text, resize the Annotation shape.
- Drag the Annotation shape to a different position on the canvas, based on the functionality that you want to document.
- Click Save.
