-  - The process itself may look for the instances of the business objects it needs by executing ''[[docs:3100_actions:0170_find|FIND]]'' action of the Rule Language.+  - The process itself may look for the instances of the business objects it needs by executing ''[[a_f:a:find|FIND]]'' action of the Rule Language.
   - The instances of the business objects the process needs may be written into the Context just before the process starts (see [[docs:2000_concepts:0800_data_processing:0100_rule_evaluation:0800_context_rule_execution|Context of Rule Execution]]) so when the process starts these instances are immediately available for the process to use in its implementation rules. These are the instances of the business objects declared as process input.   - The instances of the business objects the process needs may be written into the Context just before the process starts (see [[docs:2000_concepts:0800_data_processing:0100_rule_evaluation:0800_context_rule_execution|Context of Rule Execution]]) so when the process starts these instances are immediately available for the process to use in its implementation rules.

 To define business objects or business object groups as process input select the objects or groups in the left list box  and press the Right arrow button to move the selected objects or groups into the right list box. Similarly if you want to delete certain business objects or groups from the process input select the objects or groups in the right list box and press the Left arrow button to move them into the left list box. To define business objects or business object groups as process input select the objects or groups in the left list box  and press the Right arrow button to move the selected objects or groups into the right list box.

 The first and all subsequent actions except the last one are considered to be intermediate actions. Depending on the nature of the last action it can be treated as an intermediate one or as the final one. The last action that expects input from the user is still an intermediate action, but if the action just displays the results and does not expect input from the user, it is considered to be the final one. The VIEW action does not expect input from the user, so it is the final one in this case. In most cases intermediate actions are displayed in a popup window. The final action is displayed according to the designated output of the process, specified either in a form/query operation or a menu command (depending on where the process is used).  You can also specify that intermediate actions be displayed in the current tab rather than a popup window. This option is useful for applications running on a mobile phone where popup windows can be problematic. The first and all subsequent actions except the last one are considered to be intermediate actions.
