Manually Determining the Parent Process Data Items to Populate when a Subprocess Completes

You can manually set the parent process data items to populate when a child process completes. This enables you to set parent process data item values upon completion of the child process.
 
To manually determine the parent process data items to populate, complete the following steps:
  1. Check out and open the process.

  2. Double-click and view the start subprocess activity properties in the process that you previously configured and now want to edit.

  3. Click the Output Mappings tab. The Output Mappings options are displayed.

  4. Select the Manually Map Data Items check box.

    Note:
    You do not need to map solution data items between processes, because solution data items are available to all processes in the solution. Automatic mapping will try to map solution and process data items to matching process data items in the child process.


  5. In the Source Value and Destination Data Item fields, select the relevant input field editor and set the field to a value that corresponds with the data type.

  6. Click OK. You configured the activity to manually set the parent process data items to populate when the sub-process is complete.
