Process Models

A process model consists of 1048708 Steps 1048708 Transitions 1048708 Groups (optional) 1048708 Annotations (optional)

Run-Time Architecture

Prerequisites for all Process Models

Define all logical servers (and their logical-to-physical server mappings) to be used in the process To do so use webMethods Administrator

Set up trading partner profiles within Trading Networks for any steps in the process that need to act on specific information about trading partners

Define any external document types to be used in the process eg an XML or EDI document
