This section explains the procedure for creating a process definition report.
Prerequisites:
Generate Process Documentation in File menu is enabled when the Process Definition Editor or the Process Outline Editor is active.
The Process Definition has been saved.
To create a report of a Process Definition:
Open the Process Definition for which you want to create a report, from the Navigator view.
Click File menu and select Generate Process Documentation.
Generate Report dialog is displayed.
Enter the name of the report in the Title field.
Select the appropriate checkbox to select the format of the report. The format options are HTML, PDF and MS-PowerPoint. You can select more than one option to generate reports in multiple formats.
Click Save.
The report is generated and saved in the Documents folder in the Navigator view. A message is displayed stating that the report has successfully been saved in the Documents folder. If saving the report fails, an error message is displayed.
Note
If the Process Definition contains compound activity then the snapshot of the child process will not be generated in the report.
Note
When the Process Definition of Server Project is opened, Generate Process Documentation cannot be used.
Note
When Generate Process Documentation is executed by the Process Definition Editor and HTML report is created, a snapshot of the Process Definition is included in the report of the process definition. The file name of this snapshot is generated by adding .jpg as a file extension at the end of the name of the report file.
Note
When the HTML report is created by Generate Process Documentation, the _IBPM_STUDIO_Stype.css file is created. This file is the style sheet file of HTML report. You must not rename this file. If you decide to move the HTML report file to another folder, ensure you move this style sheet file as well.
