November 2022 production updates
Process Modeler/Content Explorer
Standard content is delivered by Infor Process Catalogs, which are provisioned as main folders in the content explorer. With this version, a new feature is available that enables you to duplicate a folder and its contents, including the referenced registry entries. After creating a duplicate folder, you can move it to another location, and you can rename it so that it is easier to distinguish from the standard content.
It is advised to make a duplicate of the content you want to edit so that when Infor redeploys standard content, your changes are not overwritten.
Note that using the
/ functionality for folders does not have the same effect as . When you copy a folder or of a model, only the models are copied, while keeping the references to the same registry entries. Changing a registry entry that is reused in several models applies the change to all models.Process Modeler/BPMN Modeler and Process Map Designer
When creating a BPMN Model or a Process Map, you can provide a process name and a description at the diagram level. When you add an element to a BPMN Model or a Process Map, these elements have a name or title attribute and a description as well. With this update, the name and description attributes are linked together when you select values from a shared registry entry, as follows:
- When you select a registry entry for the name or title attribute, the entry title and its translations are used as the value for this attribute.
- The entry description and its translations are used as the value for the corresponding description attribute; you can no longer select a description from a different registry entry.
See the Infor Process Intelligence User Guide for details about using the Registry.
Process Modeler/Process Map Designer
The modeling experience in the Process Map Designer is improved and new features are added:
- The Line element has additional Line Style, Begin connector type, End Connector Type attributes.
- You can draw curved lines.
- You can double-click a shape to add a text box.
See the Infor Process Intelligence User Guide for details about using the Process Map Designer.
