       * If an association is not frozen, the source element might get additional associations or it might lose some even if it is frozen itself.       * If an association is not frozen, the source element might get additional associations or it might lose some even if it is frozen itself.
   * Process elements that are part of multiple phases will get duplicated when one of those phases is frozen, as each phase needs a different version of the element. The duplicate is moved to an element folder called "Duplicaes for <phase name>".   * Process elements that are part of multiple phases will get duplicated when one of those phases is frozen, as each phase needs a different version of the element.

-Phase Freeze needs to be enabled in the process metamodel in <font inherit/Courier New,Courier,monospace;;inherit;;inherit>Process</font>.<font inherit/Courier New,Courier,monospace;;inherit;;inherit>xml</font>. There you have to specify which subtypes of which element represent the entity to be frozen (phase root). In a typical case, you want to freeze a phase of your process, but not milestones which are also of type phase. Additionally, a Stages Script file needs to be configured to collect all dependent elements of the frozen phase taht should get frozen when the phase itself is frozen.
