How can I customize process name if that peocess is defined in another process.
ex. Suppose "ProcessB" is defined in the process "ProcessA". "ProcessA" also contain automatic activities. When the "processB" is created it will have name like "ProcessB" or "ProcessB+ some unique characters".
I want to append a container element value to the "processB" name whenever it is created. Container element is defined in the data structure of "ProcessB" and is unique. Is it possible to customize process name?
I believe Process name can accept only 32 characters and do not accept characters like '.'. |

I am interested in a solution for this myself. Our requirement was to control the name of the subprocess. Because of the time constraints we had to employ a different solution for the problem. Please let us know if you find a solution for that and I can go back and revisit the problem.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I don't believe this is possible. This is what I was told in the past when I asked the lab about this.
Just to confirm: If you have a (sub)Process activity, when that activity is started, you can not specify the name of the instance. It will always be an MQWF generated instance name.

Just a question?
JMAC is correct.. IBM has told us the same story!
My problem was that I needed to apply a worklist filter to identify certain subprocesses.
I found a work around for my problem. We used the description field to hold a unique id and then filtered the worklist based on description.
Hope this helps.
Dave

Dave:
Just so I am sure I understand what you are saying.
You put some unique token into a member called SubProcessID, then you specify SubProcessID in the description and base your filter on this value?
