When inserting a step, you have the following options:
Step
: Describes a process step. A step is composed of one or more activities, or of sub-steps.
Sub-step
: Allows you to group steps and define sub-procedures. The superordinate step can have the status Perforned
only if all sub-steps have the status Performed
.
Complete Step
: At runtime, the system displays an overview of all steps performed by the user, and their status. In a Complete step, you can only add help text explaining this overview.
You can add a Complete step only at the end of the guided procedure. If a nested guided procedure also contains a complete step, it is hidden at the runtime of the guided procedure in which it is nested.

Add an automatic activity you have created. For more information, see Implementing an Automatic Activity.
