+When defining a generic process such as a joint review process, generic elements like the "Joint Review Coordinator" role or the "Work Product Under Review" work product can be replaced by the activity that is using the generic process.
 ===== How to define parameter elements =====
-Typical parameters of generic processes are roles or work products. To mark a specific process element as a parameter, use the ''When Called via "Find Details In"'' attribute.

-For example, to replace the "Review Coordinator" role of the generic process with the responsible role from the activity using the process, set this attribute to "Replace with Responsible". Likewise, this attribute can be set to "Replace with Inputs" or "Replace with Outputs" for generic work products, e.g. "Work Product under review".

+===== How to fill parameters =====
 To use the parameters, the activity linking to the generic process simply needs to define the element that should replace the parameter.
-In the example above, the "Review Coordinator" parameter role is replaced by the responsible role of the linked activity that uses the generic process.

+===== Limitations =====
+Only one parameter element per parameter type is supported.
+For example, only one input work product parameter can be replaced by exactly one work product of the linked activity. If the linked activity has more than one input work products or if more than one generic elements are marked as "Replace with Inputs", to parameter replacement will be performed.
