Steps to save the process model

  1. Click File menu and then select Save Process Model to Server, to save the process model on the Adeptia Suite. This displays a screen confirming that the process model has been created successfully. If the comments property is enabled, then clicking Save Process Model to Server will display a screen where you need to enter comments related to creating the process model (see Figure 22).

  2. Enter the comments in the Specify Comments for process flow <process model name> field.

    • The comment should be at least 1 character in length.
    • If you enable/disable the Comments property in the middle of a Process Model, you need to restart the Process Modeler applet.

  3. Click OK to save the comments. This displays a screen confirming that the process model has been created successfully.

    By default, the Comments property is disabled. To enable it, refer to the section Updating System Properties in the Administrator Guide.

Save Process Model on Local Hard Disk

Steps to save the Process Model on local hard disk

  1. Click File menu and select Save Process Model Locally option. The Save window is displayed (see Figure 23).

  2. The filename is automatically displayed in the textbox File Name. However, you can change it, if required. Click the Save button. Two files are saved; one saves the process model in XML format in the specified location, and the other saves all properties of the process model.

    When you open a locally saved process model, both files are opened. If the xml and properties files are in the same folder, it opens both automatically. However, if they are in separate folders, you need to open them separately.
    If a process model is opened in Read-Only mode, you can view and modify it, but you cannot save the changes, as all Save options are disabled. However, if you open a process model that has write permissions, from the Process Modeler applet, then Save options become activated.
