Start a process

To start a new instance of the process, also named case:

  1. Click on the arrow at the end of the process row or anywhere on this row.
    This navigates to the instantiation form of the process.

  2. Fill in or select the information requested.
    At that step, the process is not instantiated yet.

  3. Click on the button ("Submit" or else) The instance is created.
