To use a process file from a recent release (7.5 or later) as template to create a new process in Business Process Modeler:
1. In the first page of the BPM Project wizard, enter the name of the new project in the Project name box and click Next.
2. To use an existing process file as a template, select the Use an existing file from file system as template option, then click Browse to open the Select File dialog box, which displays the existing process files.
3. Select the SPT file in any of the process folders, which you want to use as a template for your new process.
4. Select a process file from your Workspace_Home folder and click Open.
The process template name (for instance, Assignment) and its path are shown in the File box; a number is automatically inserted in the Version box; the version number is one increment higher than the selected process file. The process template name and version (example, Assignment_V2) is entered in the remaining read-only fields.
