Creating a Process Archive

Store the ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks process definitions that you wish to include in your application in a Process Archive resource. Process Archives are then added to Enterprise Archives.

To create a Process Archive, perform the following procedure:

Procedure 

1. Create and configure one or more process definitions that have process starters. For more information about creating and testing process definitions, see TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Process Design.
2. Select the Enterprise Archive resource in the project panel. If there are any processes that have process starters in your project, a Process Archive resource becomes available in the palette panel. If you’re working in palette mode, it is located in the Process palette.
3. Drag the Process Archive into the design panel.
