Working with Processes in the Solutions View
The Solutions view shows webMethods assets in your workspace; that is, it shows processes, user tasks, rules, and user interfaces
. Assets are grouped by solution, which is a logical grouping you can form to relate the processes (including those shared with ARIS), rules projects, user tasks,
and user interfaces that you use for a solution. This enables you to visually comprehend all the assets that make up one of your solutions.
Note:
If you have the Process Simulation feature installed, the Solutions view also shows process simulations. The Process Simulation feature is required to view process simulation files. See webMethods BPM Process Simulation Help.
The Solutions view always contains the Default Solution icon  Default Solution, which contains all processes, user tasks, rules, and user interfaces in your workspace. You can create additional solutions that contain only the processes, user tasks, rules, and user interfaces that you associate with it. For example, you might create a "New_Orders" solution to group the assets that handle processing orders; this will allow you to easily comprehend the processes, user tasks, rules, and user interfaces that are used to process orders. You can associate a single resource with multiple solutions. For example, you might create a "Report_Problems" process and associate it with all of your solutions.
Note:
An alternative to viewing your workspace using the Solutions view is to use the Navigator view. In the Navigator view, the tree structure lists files that are in your workspace. An asset in the Solutions view can relate to multiple files in your workspace. For example, a process is comprised of a .process file and a .config file. It is recommended that you manage the process using the Solutions view, which automatically handles these two files together.
You can perform actions for each node in the Solutions view. The actions vary based on the type of node. Use a node's context (right-click) menu to view the actions you can perform.
You can adjust and update the Solutions view tree using the Collapse all icon  Collapse All and Refresh icon Refresh buttons on its toolbar. You can also Import icon Import and Export icon Export files in the Solutions view.
The Solutions view is shown by default in the Process Development and Process Debug perspectives. If you close the Solutions view and want to reopen it, click Window > Show View > Solutions icon Solutions.
