Creating a New Process from Scratch
Use this procedure if you want to create a completely new process with minimal starting data. This creates the costTaxonomy and machineSelectionRule CSL Modules, and populates them with the basic equations of a standard cost taxonomy, along with the necessary library file references to start configuring. Optionally you can also specify to create an empty machine table that has an identical format to one specified at creation time (no machines will be populated in the new table).

• Process Group where the new process should be created
• The Name of the new process
• (Optional) Whether or not to create an empty machine table with the same structure as the one specified
3 Click OK when done.
