Process Templates

The Process Templates component displays a list of all process templates available in the system.

An example is shown below:

This component provides a flat list of available process templates that is filterable and sortable.

Also see the Process Templates Ex component, which also displays a list of the available process templates, except they are displayed in a tree structure that allows the user to select them by checking boxes.

For information about the functions available from this component, see the "Starting Process Instances" topic in the TIBCO Workspace User’s Guide.

Access to each of the functions available in the process template list is controlled by properties on the Process Templates component (in conjunction with user access sets, which are described in the TIBCO Workspace Customization and Configuration guide). For information about setting these properties, see Process Templates Component Properties.

The Process Templates component also publishes events for actions executed from the process template list. For information about these events, see Process Templates Component Events.

Process Templates Component Events

The Process Templates component publishes the following events, which fire when the action described by the event occurs:

Event Description
List Item Select
(single click) Indicates the user has selected a process template in the process template list.

Fires when the user single-clicks a process template in the process template list, or when the user moves the highlight bar on the process template list using the keyboard arrow keys.

This event also fires once each time the user "multi" selects process templates, i.e., clicking on a process template while holding down the <Ctrl> or <Shift> key. This includes "de-selecting" a process template — that is, this event fires when the user is holding down the <Ctrl> key and clicks an already selected process template to de-select it.

List Item Execute
(double click) Indicates the user has executed a process template in the process template list.

Fires when the user double-clicks a process template in the process template list, or when the user presses Enter when a process template is already selected (highlighted).
