====== Instantiate a Process in a Workspace ====== | ====== Instantiate a Process in a Workspace ====== |

The process of instantiation is taking the standard process and giving it details of a “real” context. It allows to set up project or program specific instances without recreating standard processes each time. | Process instantiation is using a standard process and tailoring it for a specific project, program, or team context. |
| |
In Stages, process instance can be created for specific projects, products or programs by integrating predefined standard processes. This is combined with the powerful feature of on-demand ability to update these process instances, when newer versions of standard processes are released. | Some advantages of process instantiation are |
| |
| * The version of a process instance can be kept stable. Even if the standard process from which it was initially derived from is being updated, the instance will not be impacted until a decision is being made to update it to a newer version. |
| * Program, project, or other teams can rely on the defined process in their instance. Only the relevant processes are contained in this instance. Everything else is being tailored out. |
| * Project-specific work products can be managed directly in the process instance. Team members can directly access them, regardless of where they are actually stored (e.g. Sharepoint, SVN, Integrity). Project and program managers can see the status of work products across different storage repositories. |

All the process elements and tailoring rules from standard process variants are inherited in the instantiated process. | Existing standard process will then be integrated into this new workspace by using the ''Add modules'' option.
