Cisco Cisco Process Orchestrator 3.1 User Guide

Process Orchestrator processes, tasks and several other elements of the functional model can be placed 
into categories. Categories in Process Orchestrator work just like Microsoft Outlook categories with 
respect to tagging objects for grouping in the UI. Objects such as processes can be in multiple categories. 
For example, a process can be both a network best practice and a security best practice.

The Categories feature provides a way to organize your processes based on your organizational or 
functional requirements. Cisco Process Orchestrator ships with predefined categories but provides the 
functionality for you to create your own business-specific categories. When creating a process, you can 
assign the process to a category. You can also add other categories to a category to create a hierarchy.

The following sections provide information about working with categories:

Categories can be used to organize your processes based on your business-specific requirements. Use 
the Definitions > Categories view to create a new category and add members to the category. You can 
also add members to a category when defining a process.

For additional information about defining a process, see 

Choose Definitions > Categories, right-click and choose New > Category. 

In the New Category Properties property sheet, update the properties for this category, then click OK.
