 ==== Restoring ==== ==== Restoring ====
 +To edit a process it must **not** be published. Published processes can be identified by a green-white symbol in front of the version. At the restoring of a version all information of the current version are copied into the newest version.
 +<note note>If a older process verison is to be restored, a e.g. newer [[en:​software:​tim:​Smartform| smartform]] has to be taken over manually!</​note>​
 +{{  :​software:​tim:​1.jpg?​600|}} ​
 +After having selected the desired version which is supposed to be restored, a new version will be generated by the PRC after clicking on the button "​Restore"​. This newly generated version will be assigned the next consecutive version number in line. The new version can then be edited by any user due to the fact that at this stage it is has not been properly deployed yet, which in turn means that it will not have the status of read-only.

-By clicking on a restored version which has not yet been deployed, the three main assignments of a process ​can be changed: (1) deployer (who is authorized ​to deploy ​the current ​process?), (2) owner (who is the person owning this process?) and (3) starter (who is entitled to start this process?). //+== Modell== 
 +The model itself ​can'​t ​be changed ​with regard ​to its form. But, what can be changed are settings for certain tasks and activities. Individual tasks can be selected by accessing them via the process ​model oralternatively,​ via the drop-down menu ([[#​overview_of_the_process_repository_client|see element ​2]])

-//+
  
-    * Tasknode +== Smartform == 
-  - __**Model:​**__ Field **1** and Field **3** demonstrate how to access ​Tasknode. This can be done either directly via the process model itself or alternatively via the drop-down menu. Field **2** shows where exactly the duration of each node can be changed. {{ en:​software:​tim:​prc_tasknode_edit.png?​500 ​|}} +Here either ​[[en:​software:​tim:​smartform|HTML-Smartform]] can be incoporated or form can be created with the [[en:​software:​cba:start|Smartform Suite]]
-  ​__**Description:​**__ This field remains empty as long as there is no suitable description available for this node. But it is possible to add description at any time if desired. In case that a description is already existing it can either ​be edited and changed or completely deleted at one's discretion. {{ en:​software:​tim:​prc_description_edit.png?​500 |}}  +
-  - __**Events:​**__ In Feld **1** werden die bereits vorhandenen Events aufgelistet,​ falls welche vorhanden sein sollten. Ebenso können neue Events durch einen Klick auf Feld **2** angelegt werden. {{ en:​software:​tim:​prc_add_event.png?​600 |}} +
-  - __**Aufgaben:​**__ In Feld **1** werden alle vorhandenen Aufgaben aufgelistet und können hier bearbeitet werden. Neue Aufgaben können unter verwendung des BUttons in Fels **2** jederzeit hinzugefügt werden. {{ en:​software:​tim:prc_add_task.png?​500 ​|}}+
  
-  * Mailnode +== Sections == 
-  - __**Modell:​**__ Durch Auswahl der Mailnode kann die Duration geändert werden. {{ en:​software:​tim:​prc_mailnode.png?​500 ​|}} +In this tab a [[en:​software:​tim:​section_handling|section handling]] can be put to protect sectionsfrom unwanted accessIf the [[en:​software:​cba:start|Smartform Suite]] is used, the interpretation of sections is dropped.
-  - __**Events:​**__ In Feld **1** werden alle verfügbaren Events aufgelistet und können bearbeitet werden. Durch die Betätigung des Buttons In Feld **2** können Events jederzeit hinzugefügt werden{{ en:​software:​tim:prc_mail_addevent.png?​600 ​|}} +
-  - __**Email Parameter:​**__ In diesem Tab können alle notwendigen Einstellungen für einen Mailversand getätigt und geändert werden{{ en:​software:​tim:​prc_mail_configuration.png?​500 |}}+
  
-  * Swimlane +== Multilanguage == 
-  - __**Modell:​**__ Hier werden der Name und das Assignment der Swimlane angezeigt. Der Name der jeweiligen Swimlane kann nicht verändert werden, jedoch das Assignment. Die Swimlane kann im Gegensatz zu den Nodes nur durch das Dropdown-Menü ausgewählt werden, nicht über das Prozessmodell. ​{{ :​software:​tim:​prc_swimlanes.jpg?500 |}} +{{ :​software:​tim:​repository_translation.png?700|}} 
-  - __**Description:​**__ Hier kann eine Beschreibung der entsprechenden Swimlane eingetragenoder verändert werden{{ en:software:​tim:​prc_swimlane_description.png?​500 ​|}}+If the same process is needed in multiple languages, it can be realized in this tab. To do this the standard language has to be created first, based on it translations can be made for individual elements. When a user switches his [[en:​software:​tim:​Client|client]] to German, he gets the process with the **de-DE** information. If a translation is not madethe **default language** is used\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Which languages a user has lodged can be taken from the [[software:​tim:​user_profile_properties|userprofile]].

 ==== Veröffentlichen ==== ==== Veröffentlichen ====
 +<note important>​The process is not editable after publishing.</​note>​
 +{{:​software:​tim:​repository_publish.png?​300 ​ |}}
 +The changed process has to be reintegrated into TIM after all changes have been applied. This can effectively be done by clicking on the button "​Publish"​([[#​overview_of_the_process_repository_client|see element 2]]), which is confirmed via the green symbol in front of the version. \\
 +In addition, the date and the exact time of publication will be shown. This version again will afterwards have read-only status assigned. ​
  
-Nachdem alle Änderungen vorgenommen worden sind muss der abgeänderte Prozess wieder in T!M eingegliedert werden. Dies geschieht durch den Button "​Veröffentlichen"​. Anders wie bei dem normalen Deployment, benötigt man keine Zugangsdaten (Mantand/​User + Passwort), da man bereits mit seinem User im PRC eingeloggt ist. Ein einfacher Klick genügt hierbei. {{ en:​software:​tim:​prc_publish.png?​500 |}} // 
-// 
-Nachdem die Veröffentlichung stattgefunden hat, wird nun durch den grünen Haken dargestellt,​ dass die neue Version erfolgreich in T!M eingegliedert wurde. Zudem wird das Datum und die Uhrzeit der Veröffentlichung angezeigt. Die Version ist nun wieder schreibgeschützt. ​
