Process Step Library (PSL)
The PSL is one of several libraries that are introduced with SAP Solution Manager 7.2.
The PSL contains process steps (PSL items) and attached documents, test cases etc. Each business process step used in a branch must refer to a PSL item. Other business process steps can reference the same PSL step. In ARIS, the PSL is downloaded into the PSL folder of each branch. A relation is created for each business process step and its corresponding PSL step.
Base process steps can be defined as PSL steps. They have individual names and descriptions, assigned executables, related roles and specific documentation. These PSL steps can be reused in other processes. A best practice is to use a standardized process framework to structure the PSL.
