Output Field Properties

The output fields available for a process are those contained in the object(s) to which the process applies. This is specified in the Applies To property (on the

Start

tab).

The Output field values are set when the process executes and are then available in the steps that follow. Define output fields only for use in an embedded process. These output fields do not appear in lists until the values are returned from an embedded process. You define a name and type for the output field category for use in a process.
