The ProcessMaker Library is a repository for sample process templates, where ProcessMaker users can browse, download, and import templates into their PM workspaces.

ProcessMaker Library was designed as a way for the ProcessMaker community to try out ProcessMaker workflows, get ideas for workflow designs, and see first-hand some of the advanced features that ProcessMaker offers.

How to use an imported process

Before using an imported process, you will need to assign users to each task. User accounts are not imported or exported with a process! Create valid user accounts, and right-click on each task of the process map to assign users.

In some processes, a user group is already assigned to a task. In that case, you’ll need to assign your own users to that group. Under the users tab, create user accounts and assign them to the appropriate groups.

Once you’ve added valid users to tasks or groups, you can then run the process. Log in as the user assigned to the first task, and you’ll be able to start a case. Logging in with the user accounts you’ve assigned to the subsequent tasks, you can continue to run the process from the user side.
