Creating a Process Action
Before you can create a process action, you must have installed the Process Development feature of Software AG Designer, and you must be connected to the Integration Server. To install the Process Development feature, see Installing Software AG Products. To configure an Integration Server, follow the instructions as described in webMethods Service Development Help.

If you opened the wizard from a specific rule project in the Solutions view or from the Rules Explorer view, the name of this rule project appears in the
Rule project field.
You can select any other rule project from the drop down list.
4. Type a description of the action in the Description field (optional).
5. Select Process Action from the drop down list in the Type field.
6. Select the Only allow this action to run once check box if you want the action to be executed only the first time any of its associated rules fire.

You cannot select the check box for actions that deliver an output value. If you specify an output value for the action on the Process Action Output Value page, the Only allow this action to run once check box will be deselected.
7. Click Next.
8. On the Process Action Type page, select the type of process action you want the rule to invoke.
