Inserting Extended Services in an Event Process

An Extended Service can be inserted into an Event Process. The imported Extended Service instance is the reference to the service instance in the parent Extended Service. Any changes made to the service instance in the parent Extended Service are reflected in the current Event Process. The current Event process can be launched only when the remote Extended Service is running.

To add an Extended Service to an Event process, perform the steps below:

1. Right-click the orchestration editor and select the Insert Remote Service instance.
