Steps have these properties:

• Milestone (1) (view only)- used for some visual and ergonomic purposes. Milestone, which step belongs to, can be changed by moving a step (see proper article).
• Name (2) (required and should be unique for all steps in the current process) can be edited if necessary. It is shown everywhere steps are displayed (Progress component, Task Manager, Gantt Chart, Progress Dashboard, etc).

• API Name (3) (optional) can be used in different Actions where user needs to know/set a step (otherwise user need to provide Step ID, which is not a good idea to be hardcoded) - can be specified in merge fields. Mouseover to see help tooltip (4) with restrictions for API name.

• Step type (5) - specifies a step assignment (is step should be proceeded by system or not) and type of proceeding (manual steps can be proceeded to the next one by default connector, decision step can proceed to one of steps connected by "Approve" and "Reject" connections.)

• All Assignee must complete (6) checkbox (for non-system steps) - if set this option, all assignees should proceed (or approve) a step in order to allow to go further. If not checked, only one assignee's proceed is needed. Same setting will work for steps (and responsibilities) assigned to multiple users, also for step/responsibility Assign type is representing multiple users (Filed, Group, Queue etc.).

• Require Comments (7) checkbox (for non-system steps) - if checked, user can't proceed further without any text in comment. For Decision step there are 2 separate checkboxes (8) (for Approve and Reject types of proceeding):

• Autocomplete Behavior (for Decision steps only) - specifies what should system do with the step if it is escalated to the system. This property can be set to "Approve", "Reject" or "Formula" (in this case user can build a formula that returns "Approve" or "Reject" depending on necessary conditions and logic):

Click on Formula input field (9) to call a Formula Picker popup:

• Processing Frequency (10) - select how often system jobs will try to make necessary actions on started instances of this process. Default value is about 10 minutes; if a process is too heavy or does not require immediate reactions, it will be better to set higher value. Set it to "Never" if you plan to start jobs manually:

• Description (11)- populate for your assistance (optionally):
