 <h1 class="topictitle1">Process Element Properties View</h1>
 <div><p>When you are editing a process, the process element properties view allows
 you to edit all the details for a single element in the process. If you click
 in any row in a process display, you will see the full details of the process
 element in the row in the properties view.</p>
 <p>If the properties view is not open, right click any row in a process and
 select <strong>Show Properties View</strong>.</p>
 <p>The properties view is the editor for activities, task descriptors, roles
 descriptors, and work product descriptors. The information for
 a descriptor is similar to the corresponding method element editor, but it
 also has information related to the element in the process. The process information
 is also displayed in the corresponding row in the process display.</p>
 <p><strong>General Information tab:</strong></p>
 <p>The Name and Presentation Name default to the corresponding names in the
 base method element. These names can be changed in a descriptor.</p>
 <div class="p">The following attributes are used to specify certain aspects of the element
 in the process and can be set for all types of process elements:<ul><li><strong>Optional</strong>: If this is checked (true), it indicates that the element
 is considered optional in the process. This means that it is safe to remove
 the element. If this is not checked (false), the element is considered mandatory
 and should not be removed from the process.</li>
 <li><strong>Multiple Occurrences</strong>: If this is checked (true), it indicates that
 when the process is instantiated as a project or other process, it is expected
 that there will be multiple occurrences of this element. If this is not checked
 (false), it indicates that there should only be a single occurrence of this
 element when the process is instantiated.</li>
 <li><strong>Planned</strong>: If this is checked (true), the element will be included
 in an export to a project management tool. If this is not checked (false),
 it will not be included in an export.</li>
 <li><strong>Suppressed</strong>: If this is checked (true), the element will not appear
 in a published process. This is usually used to modify a capability pattern
 included in a process. This is not checked (false) as default.</li>
 </ul>
 </div>
 <div class="p">The following elements can be set for task descriptors and activities:<ul><li><strong>Event Driven</strong>: If this is checked (true), it indicates that the
 task or activity will be initiated when a particular event occurs. If this
 is not checked (false), it indicates that the task or activity will be initiated
 based on other tasks in the process.</li>
 <li><strong>Ongoing</strong>: If this is checked (true), it indicates that the task
 or activity is continuous. If this is not checked (false), it indicates that
 the task or activity has a clear start and finish in the process.</li>
 <li><strong>Repeatable</strong>: If this is checked (true), it indicates that the task
 or activity can iterate when the process is instantiated. If this is not checked
 (false), it indicates that the task or activity will only occur once in the
 process.</li>
 </ul>
 </div>
 <p>Dependency Field: You can add one or more dependencies for a task or activity.
 Click the <strong>Add...</strong> button and enter the index number for the task or
 activity on which the current element is dependent. The dependency (type)
 defaults to Finish-to-Start. If you want to set another dependency type, click
 the <strong>Edit</strong> button and select the required dependency type in the dependency
 drop down box. You can enter a different index number on the Edit dialog.
 You can also remove a dependency by selecting the dependency and clicking
 the <strong>Remove</strong> button.</p>
 <p>The base method element for the descriptor is displayed on the page. You
 can select a different element by clicking the <strong>Link Method Element</strong> button
 and selecting the required element.</p>
 <p><strong>Documentation tab:</strong></p>
 <p>The documentation tab contains descriptive attributes for the descriptor
 or activity.</p>
 <p><strong>Roll-Up tabs:</strong></p>
 <p>The properties view for an activity includes roll-up tabs that provide
 lists of tasks, roles, or work products "rolled up", or summarized, for the
 activity.</p>
 <p><strong>Association tabs:</strong></p>
 <p>The remaining tabs are used to add or remove associations between the activity
 or descriptor to method elements.</p>
