When you enable the processing steps status for a virtual service, you enable the controls on the
Processing Steps profile for that virtual service. These controls enable authorized users to modify the processing steps for the virtual service.
When you disable the processing steps status for a virtual service, you disable the controls on the
Processing Steps profile. While this profile is disabled, users cannot make changes to the virtual service's processing steps.
Typically, you use this action in combination with the
Change Deployment Status action, which enables and disables the
Deployment profile for a virtual service. For example, when you enable the
Processing Steps profile for a virtual service, you generally disable the
Deployment profile and vice versa.
