End users see not only the Jazz-based tools, but their experience is largely governed by the software development process that is implemented in the tools. This section will help you understand the process enactment in RTC, and will explore ways that you can implement, change, manage and administer these processes.

Process enactment introduction

Process in RTC is implemented within the scope of an RTC project. Different projects may follow different processes, but all users within the context of a single project will follow the same process. This process enactment is done using process templates. These templates are essentially an XML representation of the process that you wish to follow.

Enact process

Automate, guide, or enforce the team's behavior when using RTC to improve adherence to a successful process. Link process description to the enacted process in RTC whenever possible so team members have an easy way to understand what they need to do and why they need to do it.
