View process associations

View associations for a process, case definition, fragment, variable, and milestone.

See Process associations.

The associations are only displayed for a released process, case definition, or fragment.

If you modify the name of the process, case definition, or fragment in the Design view, click Refresh to display the newly associated, updated, or renamed items.

The item is opened in a read-only mode if it is already locked by another user.

View associations for a process/case definition/ fragment

  1. Navigate to the list page.
  2. Open the process/case definition/fragment for which to view the associations.

    The process/case definition/fragment opens in the Design view, in a new browser tab.

  3. On the Modeling bar, click the File tab and click Associations.

    By default, the processes being used by this process, and the processes using this process, if any are displayed. You can view the process associations for the following:

    • Process / Rule: Processes and rules being used by this process/case definition/fragment, and the processes using this process/case definition/fragment if any.

      Work queue automation rule being used in this process.

      You can click a process/rule name link to open the process/rule in a new browser tab and make changes, as needed.

    • Forms: Forms being used by this process. If a form is associated with an activity, the name of the activity is also displayed.

      You can click a form name link to open the form in a new browser tab and make changes, as needed.

      The non-Kofax TotalAgility forms do not have a hyperlink.

    • Server variables: Server variables being used by this process/case definition/fragment. If a server variable is associated with an activity, the name of the activity is also displayed along with the server variable name.

    • Resources: Resources (individuals and groups) being used by this process/case definition/fragment. If a resource is associated with an activity, the activity name is also displayed.

      The areas where a resource may be associated with the process are:

      The resources associated with milestones, alerts and email activities are not displayed.

    • Capture: Classification groups, extraction groups, folder types, separation profiles, Scan/VRS profiles, PDF profiles, and document conversion profiles being used by this process.

      If a classification group is associated with an activity, the activity name is also displayed. However, if the "Inherit from process" is selected for the activity, the classification group is only displayed at the process level and not displayed specific to the activity.

      The document types and folder types that are being used by the process are displayed.

      The Separation profiles, Scan/VRS profiles, PDF profiles, and Document conversion profiles that are being used by the process are displayed along with the activity name or current process name if used at the process level.

      You can click the document type or folder type link to open it in a new window and make changes, as needed.

      The areas where a classification group, extraction group, separation profile and scan/VRS profile, PDF profile, and document conversion profile may be associated with the process are:

      Classification groups

      • Classification process property

      • Classification activity

      • Validation activity

      • Document review activity

      • Composite activity

      • Scan activity

      Extraction groups

      • Document type

      • Folder type

      Separation profiles

      • Classification activity

      • Process properties

      • Composite activity

      • Scan activity

      Scan/VRS profiles

      • Process properties (multiple profiles)

      • Process properties device

      • Composite activity

      • Image processing activity

      • Scan activity (multiple profiles)
