Adding a parallel process to a stage

Support your business process events that do not require a run-time order by adding a parallel process to a stage. For example, if your business goal is to review a job application, you can create a parallel process named Background check that you can conduct outside of the main process.
  1. In the navigation pane of Dev Studio, click Case types, and then click the case type that you want to open.
  2. On the Workflow tab, click Life cycle.
  3. In the Case life cycle section, hover over a stage, and then add a process:
    • To add a new process, click More > Add parallel process > New process.
    • To add a new multistep form, click More > Add parallel process > New multistep form.
    • to reuse an existing process, click More > Add parallel process, and then select the process in the list.
  4. In the text field, replace the default process label with a descriptive name.
  5. Click Save.
  6. Optional: To prevent the process from running each time that a case reenters the stage, configure the settings:
    1. Next to the name of the case type, click Actions > Open.
    2. On the Stages tab, click the name of the stage that contains your process.
    3. In the Automatically launched processes section, clear the Run on re-entry check box next to the name of your process.
    4. Click Save.
Result: At run time, the process starts when a case enters the stage.
What to do next: Add meaningful tasks to your parallel process by adding steps. For more information, see Adding a step to a process.
